Need to sort out a fancy dress outfit for next year, need to dye a dinner suit from black to red, is this possible by bleaching it first.
Cant find any decent red suits.
Any help appreciated

Yeah you would have to strip the black from it first. Make sure you wash it a few times before colouring it red to remove the bleach from it.

It will only work if you've got a cotton or wool suit. If it's polyester then it wont have been dyed so I don't think it'll bleach.
