any suggestions?
I wore a new black top the other day; it's kind of sheer at the back, and black bras showed up quite a bit, more than I wanted, whereas pale bras don't, so I wore a pale t-shirt bra with it.
But at the end of the night, I realised that the black dye had really rubbed onto the bra. The top is now soaking in a vinegar and salt solution to try to set the dye, but the water doesn't actually look very coloured and not much dye is coming out, so it doesn't really seem to be excess dye leaking.
So I think the biggest issue was the fact that the dye just transferred from the friction of the material against the bra, under jackets, from handbag, from carrying and doing stuff etc.
Any ideas how best to get the dye out of the bra, without resorting to a lot of scrubbing? Anything I can soak it in? It's a couple of days old now. I haven't wanted to wash it yet until I know I've soaked it in the most effective thing, as I don't want to set the stain more. Otherwise I guess I'll be saving this particular bra to wear with this top! I'd been going to get a new, better fitting one, but I don't want to ruin a new one now, so hoping that soaking the top might prevent it happening again (or at least lessen it).
