DIY: Tie-Dye/Bleached Jeans

Ever since I first saw the biker inspired bleached denim on the runway of Balmain, I knew this trend was going to be a hit, but I didn’t think it would hold up for so long. Everyone from Victoria Beckham to BeyoncA© have rocked this look and so can you. Copy this look by D.I.Y. and revive the 80s in your wardrobe with homage to the late legendary Michael Jackson by pairing it up with a band inspired jacket (a la Balmain).

D.I.Y. instructions to create your own Tie-Dye/Bleached Jeans

(Source – Life & Style):

Tools needed: Bleach, bucket, sponge, rubber gloves, newspaper

Step 1: Assemble tools and pour bleach into bucket.

Step 2: Stuff jeans with newspaper to keep bleach from seeping through to the other side.

Step 3: Using a sponge, dab and drip bleach onto jeans. Hang to dry for an hour . Wash and dry.

Step 4: Reapply bleach with sponge in additional areas. Hang to dry for three hours. Wash and dry again.

Tip: Make sure to choose a well-ventilated area, like a porch or driveway, because bleach gives off noxious fumes.
