Died my daughters dress

Hello wise ones.... my in laws bought a lovely white dress for my daughter which I accidentally let slip into as wash with a dark red top. The dress is now a light shade of pink! Any tips? I have some granules but they've never worked so wondered if any thing else could fix this?
Thank you!!!

Sorry can't help with the problem, but your title made me laugh OP 😂

sorry. I have never managed to remove colour like that after the fact...

tbh I dyed a naice top this happened to another colour after it turned 'dirty blue' (jeans) in the wash.

I ran a whites wash through with a red dress by accident.

I soaked in vanish whites for a full 24 hours, washed again and then left out in the sun. It took a few more washes for all the pink to come out.

Some pink stuff stain remover, mixed with some vanish gold stain whitener and green fairy washing up liquid. Mix it in a big stainless plan and pop it in for a good 24 hours. Just give it a stir now and again. My little hack for everything that isn't white and needs to be ! Xx

I’m sure in the next wash and hang in the sunshine and it will be ok.
