Twenty-five years ago, I made a Christmas tree skirt with green/red plaid taffeta and red twill on other side, with expensive delicate white lace. I over watered the tree this year and the skirt got wet.
You can try Rit Dye/Color Remover. Take a look at this site: www.ritdye.com/
Follow the Rit instructions EXCEPT, only dip the lace part with the color that bled onto the lace, NOT the whole thing. Good luck.
It would be a lot of work, but you could also take the skirt apart, bleach the lace, then put the skirt back together.
Unfortunately, I put my shirt in the wash last night and it looks like the blue has bled into the white stripe along the middle. The two photos show before and after.
Please can someone recommend how to restore the colours? This is a very sentimental shirt and I would massively appreciate any help!
How do you get color run out of clothes?
Take a white cloth and dampen it with a commercial stain remover, rubbing alcohol, hairspray, or any clear solvent that is 90% alcohol. Dab the stain with the white cloth repeatedly, and the dye should keep transferring from your garment onto the white cloth. Afterward, wash as usual with a couple SHOUT COLOR CATCHER SHEETS. Walmart sells a box of 72 sheets for just under $10.
This shirt will not turn back into the shirt you had before . There are different things to use to brighten or color the full shirt. You could try doing by sections with RIT color desolve on the white section. The color of the blue is the hardest to bring back.
I have a beige dress with a black lace. I washed it by hand, but left it for few minutes in the water. Black color transferred onto beige. Any tips to remove it?

Try the Rit Color Grabber. If this is a new item, consider taking it back to the store.
Most methods will suggest that you soak the clothes for 8 hours to remove the dye transfer but in your case I feel it would just transfer moer of the color to your dress. You can try to use a color stain remover on this.

I have a burgundy and white jacket that when washed the white areas turned pink. I have tried washing with Oxiclean with no change. Do you know if I use the RIT color remover if the burgundy areas will be affected by the solution or not?
I used this product on material a very long time ago, but that shirt was solid color not multicolored. If it will affect the burgundy I will try some of the other solutions suggested on this site.The color bleed onto the white in your jacket. This is a manufacture defect and shouldn't of happened if you followed the washing instructions carefully. I sure hope it doesn't say dry clean only. If it has washing instructions on the label and you did as it said, then I would contact the company and show them pictures of your jacket.

Shout makes a color run remover. Its in the laundry aisle and does very good.
Soak it in a 5 gallon pail of hot water with 2T each hydrogen peroxide and dishwasher powdered detergent. Then wash as usual.
