Instead of polluting our world, we look to revamp and use what we already have in our closet with the help of our dyes. When shared this history with Blu, the mission was clear: utilize what we already have and spread the message of upcycling with the world.
So we got to work and dove inside Blu’s closet with stylist Avigail Collins to pull some clothes to upcycle. We went through our library of color formulas with Avigail and landed on these recipes to revive some of Blu’s well-loved pieces:
Blu DeTiger Blue (formulated just for Blu!), Optic Green, Purple Rhapsody, Outer Orbit and the All-Purpose Golden Yellow Liquid Dye which we used to overdye her blue Levi’s jeans as well as the Graphite DyeMore for Synthetics used to dye her boots (shown above).
Avigail even took out her sewing kit to create this cool stitch resist on one of Blu’s pieces we dyed (pictured above). Check out the full tutorial HERE.
We also took Blu’s merch t-shirt and did a little reverse tie-dye to create this look below, instructions for this can be found HERE.
