Bleach Stain on Viscose

I have a blue top made of viscose that I am really fond off and have just noticed three small spots that look like bleach on my top. How can I get rid of it? I have tried using a stain removing powder but to no avail. Does anyone have any recommendations please. Would turps (white spirit) be of any use? Thanks for your help.

i just sew a nice motif over the bleached mark or in some cases stain.
A pretty flower or butterfly.

It sounds as though you have bleached spots for some reason. You might try using a dye color-remover for the entire garment, then re-dye it into a color you would like.

For small white stains on a light blue background - the best you can do is try to fill in the white spots with a matching color to blend with the rest of the fabric - This is easy for colors like black or red or blue but for light colors try a color-based marker - or even powdered eye shadow in a matching color - you may have to touch up after washing -but you will be able to continue to wear that piece of clothing!
