As our country’s still in “lockdown and physical distancing mode,” it makes sense that people would use “DIY Tie-dye” as a way to connect. And since now is not the ideal time to go out and shop for clothes, you can make your tie-dye outfits from the comfort of your humble home.
In the first few months of 2020, tie-dye has already become one of the year’s biggest fashion trends. It was likely because “DIY tie-dying” has been a fun and creative way to endure the boredom of being stuck at home. And it’s also not that hard to do it with just a few pieces you already have in your closet.
Tie-dye outfits may sound like a new trend, but the pattern’s first appearance dates back hundreds of years. Tie-dye is a universal method of designing textile and fabrics, and the world has been doing it for more than 600 years now. Today, we see versions of it in most cultures, in parts of Asia and America.
How to Style Tie-Dye Outfits
- For Starters. If you feel like tie-dye isn’t for you, it is better to start wearing the pattern in the simplest way you can think of. You can do it by choosing an eye-catching garment and pairing it with neutral-toned outfits.
- Colors. Earthy tones and neutrals are recommended. And we’ve also seen subdued black and grey patterning that’d be easy to rock through almost any outfit you can think of. If you are ready to take your fashion game to another level, combine your tie-dye outfit with pieces of a similar color palette. The outcome will be exceptional and original.
- Patterns and Prints. The skies are your limit! Be creative by doing some color blocking and trying a different fusion of prints, such as tie-dye clothing with florals, polka dots, and stripes.
- Tie-Dye Accessories. If you don’t want to go full-on with tie-dye, consider using a tie-dye accessory instead. Start with socks, tote bags, and pocket squares. Whatever it is, make sure it won’t be the center of attention. For instance, accessorize with a tie-dye tote bag to rock the tie-dye look without being an “overkill.” This can be a pretty convenient and creative way to incorporate some personality into your look without going overboard. That said, wear simple garments – pieces of a subdued palette to let your tie-dye bag do the talking.
- Festivals. The festival is a perfect place to wear tie-dye. This reminds me of the days of Woodstock, rock ‘n’ roll psychedelia, and the take of the Western world in this fashion trend.
- Tie-Dye Suits. Wearing a tailored outfit in tie-dye might sound awkward, and I can’t blame you. I would agree at one point. Today, however, it would no longer be a cliche to do it, with some points to consider. Choose a classic fit and cut, and stick with only one tie-dye piece per outfit. But don’t use this ensemble for a job interview, please.
- Dress up with tie-dye. Don’t limit yourself to wearing tees and sweats. Yes, comfy and cozy printed sweatsuits are becoming more and more popular each day, but don’t forget that tie-dye can also dress up other wardrobe pieces. This trend can suit almost any occasion while adapting to the ever-changing fads and trends in fashion. Thanks to a myriad of outfits available – from formal wear to casual clothing.

Wear a tie-dye pattern as a statement. First, round up some essential staple pieces. Then, make sure the rest of your outfit is laid-back and minimal. Allow the bright colors to take the spotlight. For instance, rocking a pair of colorful kicks is a great way to add some flavor to your ensemble. Vans, Crocs, and Converse are making some excellent options out there. Again, keep the rest of the outfit low-key to let the shoes speak for themselves.
