    hi there. I purchased a slip from my bridal shop and want to dye it red. I've seen crinolines dyed before, but can slips be dyed as well? Is there even a difference between the two? any help would be appreciated. thanks!

    i went to Rit's website and found this:

    <span class="header_sub">Q. What types of fabrics can I dye with RIT Dye?
    <span class="header_sub">A. RIT will dye most washable fabrics, including 100% cotton, linen, rayon, wool, and silk. It will also dye synthetics such as rayon, nylon, and acetate as well as fiber blends with at least 60% cotton or other dyeable fiber. (Blends will tint evenly but will not achieve full color.) There are fabrics, however, that will not accept dye, such as fabrics with 50% or more polyester, 100% acrylic, fiberglass, metallic fibers, fabrics with rubber backing or special finishes such as water-repellent fabrics with bleach damage or extensive staining, and fabrics that are washable only in cold water or labeled “dry clean only.”

    hope that helps :)
