Steal Her Look: J-Lo’s Tie-Dye Sweatsuit
It’s no surprise that celebrities love tie dye! Even Jenny from the block was recently spotted in a vibrant rainbow spiral tie-dye sweatsuit— and if you want to steal her look, we’ve got you covered. It’s easy to create your own tie-dye sweatsuit with Tulip!
What you need:
Tulip One-Step Tie-Dye Kit of choice
White cotton sweatsuit
Disposable plastic table cover
Plastic wrap
Before you get started on this colorful craft, prewash your sweatsuit to remove any sizing. Leave the fabric damp and fold and bind your sweatshirt using the spiral tie-dye technique. Pinch the fabric the center and twist into a swirl. Keep twisting the fabric tightly until the entire garment is formed into a spiral shape. Use 3 rubber bands to hold your spiraled fabric in place, crisscrossing the rubber bands to create 6 wedge shapes. Repeat this process with your sweatpants.
Mix the tie dye solutions according to package instructions. J-Lo’s rocking a classic rainbow spiral, but you can choose any colors you’d like! Apply one color of dye to each section of your sweatsuit. Wrap, let set 6-8 hours, rinse, wash, and reveal!
