Help - 3 hours to make my DD’s ballet tights less pink.

[seventiesborn]

Stupidly washed daughters very pale pink tights in with some pink clothes. They have turned bright pink. They are nylon. I’ve soaked in diluted bleach but the colour isn’t fading. Dd have a panic as teacher is very fussy and she is in a show this evening. No where locally sells them. Any advice please

Get some white ones or see if someone has a second pair they can lend.. or style it out, these things happen.

Try a hot wash cycle?
I'm surprised the colour has not faded even a little after a soak in diluted bleach. Do they look the same shade when dry?
(I know it's not a lot of help for now but i have noticed that dye bleeding onto paler clothes can fade quite a bit over time and several washes.)

From past experience, if it's a show, the teacher will have spare tights in case of accidents. I'd just explain what happened and see if they can let you have some more.

Could you see if anyone has a spare pair on a local Facebook page/if you have contact with any of the mums? Or call the teacher, who may have spares or be able to send an email to everyone involved this evening to see if anyone has a spare pair they could bring?

Decathlon also sell dance tights, mentioning as you may have one locally but not necessarily thought of it as somewhere that might sell them (as do some Sainsburys', depending on the age you need!)

Are any dance schools open who might have some spare in lost property?

I would expect the dance school to have some you could buy

Dr beckmans is the answer.

Have you got any ballet mum friends you can ask if they have spare? Or ballet teacher may have some from lost property or something?

Wash some white tights in with a pink item?
