Color Faded on a Rayon Shirt?

I ruined my favorite shirt and tried to buy another one, but they don't sell it anymore. I can't even order it. It is dark purple and made out of rayon. It has a huge light pink spot on it in a couple of places. It looks like the color faded out of it for on these spots. How can i fix this? Can I dye rayon? I read something about a crayon and iron. Can I iron rayon? Please give me ideas, I will try anything.

Sounds like a bleach stain. Purple will bleach out to pink sometimes. Bleach or a cleaning product that contains bleach does this. You have nothing to lose by trying to color with crayon and ironing in, but I doubt it will match. If you do it, be sure to wash separately so crayon excess doesn't bleed onto other clothing.

I have a dark purple jacket that's faded on the shoulders, I think from sunlight. I have a wedding to go to on Wednesday. I'm desperate for a solution! !! Help please.

Try a magic marker close to the color of your top. Be sure to keep the marker in the middle of the stain, as it will darken the outer part that has not lost its color. Good luck.

It does sound like a bleach stain. I don't know much about rayon, but you could try RIT dye in the laundry section of your grocery store (two packages, since it is a dark color). You may want to try the RIT color remover first, to start off with a more evenly-toned color overall.

If you try the crayon and it doesn't work, then you'd have the problem of removing the crayon completely before trying to dye it.

Get a quality pigment dye from an art supply store and follow directions. I've read rayon takes color beautifully. Good luck!
