I just put 18 cups of bleach in my washing machine - am I going to die?
>>itt diy til u die
>>10921769
UPDATE I didn't die
>>10922238
Corporate shill
Going to do this on a blue french worker jacket
>>10922238
more bleaching
>>10922263
looks dope friendo :')
>>10922263
Can I bleach blue cotton to white or will it be light blue?
>>10922273
here are some patches I just got from Mean Folk, ideas for where to put them?
also, places to get patches?
>>10922285
The stripe on the jacket was actually coated in some sort of wax, and then indigo dyed.
>>10922288
on the ass obv
>>10922443
Yeah I saw that but my jacket is all blue so I'll bleach it
>he fell for the pale meme
Ahahahaha
>>10922443
That's a super rad idea, I bet it'd look cool with a logo or with something dip-dyed
Hope you gays have remembered to use your reducing agent? If not enjoy your custom cotton rot.
>>10922238
what's the sequence like? do you pour bleach from beginning and add jacket mid cycle?
>>10921769
>>10922238
Lol thats nice!
Put all the shit you don't wear on that bleaching machine and make a ton of Palewave fits.
What color was the hoodie? I want a pink hoodie as well man. That would look so 80s retro futurism.
>>10922729
>>10922756
It started off a dark navy (see the drawstrings and stitching). I just se the wash to 'small load' and 'hot' and while the water is filling I put in about 10 cups of bleach. After it fills, just toss it in and let it do a full wash.
>>10922288
Not a fan of top and left, honestly
Okay, this is going to be sketchy, especially asking this board. However...
What is some high quality fabric paint that will work on leather? What would the general process of painting on leather look like?
>>10922914
Gotta save the thread
>>10922960
Anybody want inspo?
>>10922964
I like this one a lot. Just swatches of color
>>10922972

Patch/paint idea
>>10922982
Personal favorite
Seriously...the fabric paint...help
>>10922988

>>10922972
you deserve to be painfully executed
>>10922988
Has anyone ever tried embroidery at all?
>>10922997
The moonrunes are retarded, don't get me wrong
But the execution is fantastic. And album-themed, painted fashion pieces have been...you know, the tiniest bit successful before

>>10923015
This had to be his inspiration, and he just let memes get in the way of it. Shitty for him, but good for the rest of us who can learn from his terrible, terrible mistake and ruined life
>>10922992
What? Why
>>10922909
thanks for being honest
>>10923024
Always thought that last one was pretty funny
>>10923019

I know you're probably being sarcastic, but this place works best when the people here actually give a shit.
I can't tell what you're trying to go for with these. Patches are great for a lot of things, but if they don't work together, then they don't work. Styles are usually pretty stupid when you cross them.
Punk?
>'70s, '80s, God forbid the '90s, marxist, anarchist, fascist, crust, homeless, bored suburbanite, post-surf rock, whatever
Something techie?
>lunarcore, NASA engineer, Weyland-Yutani employee, Blade-Runner, cosmonaut, Formula-1 driver, etc. etc.
Pic is going for something reminiscent of x-files, for example.
Upper-lower class?
>truck driver, mechanic, Appalachian sister-fucker, homeless Florida guy, wannabe NASCAR driver, all that shit
Doesn't matter if you don't have cohesion. You need cohesion. If you're going for one look, you have to focus on that one look. The bottom left is kinda reminiscent of something off tumblr or a modern joke shirt. The top is like something out of an '80s National Lampoon movie. Both of those things are fine if you do them right (I don't know how, I guess you could figure it out), but they just don't make any sense together, not even in an intentionally post-modern, nonsensical-for-the-laffs kind of way
Just something to think about if you do end up using them, or even move on to bigger projects.
>>10923029

Hey, to each their own, man
>>10923128
>>10922972
>>10922997
Ah, thought you were talking about the Filth denim, too
Same story though. The guy looks ridiculous, no question. Hat looks fucking ridiculous. Mustache fits with jacket but nothing else. Shoe-sock combo is vomitous. Lanyard retarded. Cargo shorts need not be mentioned.
That said, under the field of shit, he had a good idea. Just couldn't pull it off. Tried too much, too hard, all at once. We can still take his idea, and be thankful we were granted with taste in form and color and the ability to pick and choose what we like in something new, and not absorb the entire thing. That's how you progress in your work.
>>10923153
Pins are cool, too
>>10923157
Everybody's favorite. Don't forget to cut off the flag before you dye, and wait a few days before sewing it back on, unless the completely muted color thing is what you're going for.
Would also suggest getting a liner to go with them if you live somewhere cold. They're not zip-in, unfortunately, but cutting them up and attaching buttons/snaps/just seeing the damn thing in is good practice
>>10923173
Whoops
>>10923179
Also on the parka, it almost looks better if some of the pattern still shows through. You can always add dye later.
>>10923183
One of the best punk aesthetics you could ever ask for, and a good indication how to still use color in those kinds of fits
>>10923191
I'm glad nobody cares about this thread and I've got free reign
This kind of fit is why DIY is up there among the ultimate fashionable expressions of basically anybody below a full-fledged, established designer. It lets you develop specific images, come to understand how silhouettes fit together structurally, how colors and patterns play on each other, how fabric can be made to flow or conform and how combinations of textures and stiffness and stitching can change everything: comfort, movement, drape, pull, wear...
Plus, it allows for grand artistic expression, is fun, and eventually lets you show yourself off exactly as you want to be seen
>>10922514
hello rat
>>10923231
Yeah this has been pretty good and been somewhat insporation to me,I've had some clothes I've wanted to adjust but I never got arounf to it.
Does anyone know where you find guides for stuff like sowing,dying,finding materialetc?
What's up with all the posts on the internet saying "you will ruin" x or y if you bleach it?
I see people bleaching their shit all the time here and it never "ruins" anything
>>10922514
hello ratto
pls no
>>10922238
looks dope familia
>>10921769
be aware that high concentrations of bleach will actually start to eat away at the fibers of the fabric
your clothes will literally start to fall apart
do several rounds of diluted bleaching versus one super bleach
>>10922999
lol none of this is diy
it's all Helmut Lang
although I guess I could see why you'd mistake it for diy because of the way Panos Yiapanis styled everything
that whole retrospective/editorial is one of my favorites
>>10922514
hello rat
that is in a state of being physically malaised as it stands in the light of plain reason phamiglias
>>10923884
It's inspiration for DIY, dude
And the chain mail thing is from a separate website
I should have posted in this thread instead of making a separate one.
What happens if I bleach an eastpak?
>>10922964
Days n daze is sick as fuck
anyone actually sew thier own pants?
these are my pair almost 3 years old
>>10922238
damn now you will REALLY look like you're homeless
>>10922514
hallo rato
>>10924197
It looks doper I imagine. Depends what it's made of though if you're asking if it will bleach or what color it will turn
>>10922514
Hello ratto
Going to do this to some older jeans and take a look at a couple of thrift stores for more denim to mess with.
http://yourstylehigh.com/2012/09/18/diy-tie-dye-bleached-denim-jacket/
Would a pair of jeans half bleached look goofy?
>>10922999
On leather? Recently I embroidered on a pleather jacket
>inb4 poorfag
Any way, it was really hard to not stitch into the the layer inner layer that wasnt the outside pleather layer. It got there a couple times and i got really frustrated that i snapped the thread but i was basically finished it anyway. It looks rough but I guess thats the effect people want. Relatively happy with it. I embroidered a cicada for good luck. I'm gonna add moths later when i have time.
I used a back stitch the whole while.
>>10925658
Yes it will desu
you could try is bleaching and then dyeing the fabric afterwards.
but then again the sterling ruby x raf was really dope and if you bleach it right maybe you can make something like it
>>10925941
>>10923128
what's this brand again
>>10922514
Anyone who posts pictures like this, and is responded to with trips, will receive all negative effects themselves, and everyone else will be immune.

chain mail was a very limited runway piece for Helmut Lang A/W03
>>10924625
They look like they'd smell so bad.
>>10923183
how do you do this
>>10926875
want to do it on the back of a flecktarn parka
>>10926875
>>10926878
the constellation is photo shopped on the bag.
when he made it for real he said he used some type of fabric marker and i remember eh didnt put all the tiny stars on and just did the constellations
too bad archive is down or i would find it for you
>>10926888
acutally now that i think of it I could print out the contellation and lines on an acetate sheet and poke out the holes
>>10922514

>>10927816
Yes, he has pugni nelle mani too.
>>10922514
hello_ra_to
Plan is to put the skull(a band logo) onto the back of a black hoodie and mayhaps cut the flowers from the t-shirt and put onto the front of the hoodie.
Also I'd kind of want the shirt as it is but with a bigger neck as its kind of small, is that easily fixable?
Opinions?

Is there a specific name to altering the neck of your hoodie like this? Someone has to know what I'm talking about.
Lol accidentally posted this in waywt.
Took a Russian flight bomber and cold water dyed it to get the camo affect. Then I added some patches to each arm
>>10928669
>>10928666
it doesnt look camo bro it just looks like it's been wrecked in a flood or something
nice satan trips though
>>10928673

hello
rato
I did this autistic collection of colors resulting from bleaching a black tee (looking at photos on google)
It's all yours
>>10922514
helo rato
>>10931093
you mind formatting it so it's a bit more understandable? nice work otherwise.
>>10931726
what do you mean?
there is nothing to understand,
i just took all the colors in the photos i found on google then i put them in this picture, dividing the yellowish, the orangeish and the pinkish ones
i believe every time you bleach something black you can get a random color from these, depending, idk, from the nature of the original dye, and the fabric maybe?
(ps I did this insane work basicall because i really like this kind of color shades deriving from bleach)
some of the sewed pants look dirty and smelly as shit, unless they fit will, and you have nice legs, they would look like shit

What paint should i use 2 do smthing like this?
>>10935551
non-shitty acrylic
>>10922999
If you try embroidery, get a thimble or you will rek your fingers.
>>10935551
also intrested in this.
>>10935701 normal acrylic color (which you use to paint on canvas) would fall off, because it gets hard and is not flexible.
I don't have much experience but here is what I am working on atm
>>10937283
>>10937286
I am probably going to add patches to this one and the other ones ill just add to when i get some more ideas
>>10925953
mastermind Japan. Just going off the skulls.
>>10935551
house paint
sometimes hardware stores will sell leftover paint from custom made colors so you can get small amounts of a bunch of different colors
These were listed as "over dyed" hoodies, is it possible to make something like this with a regular hoodie? Overdye it?
>>10922238
OP update, dip-dyed. Gonna rinse it tonight and plan a decal for the front. I'm thinking something raf-ish
>>10939756
Have to rebleach the bottom a little to take care of those stray drops
>>10939756
>>10939772
Looks pretty cool.
>>10935551
Ideally spray paint. High quality.
Brands like Montana, etc.
Spray the paint against cardboard or whatever and keep spraying until it starts to drip onto the shoes.
Also just buy the Margielas you fucking pleb.
>>10922835
Do you pour it in the actual washing machine or in the bleach thing?
>>10940870
I poured it all right into the drum with the water and shirt
>>10928412
>>10930704
Anyone know how to cut a hoodie's neck like this without it looking bad
>>10941699
bump
>>10921769
Thank you OP this inspired me to bleach my champion hoodie and it turned out great. Will update with pics later
Anyone got any experience with bleaching a M65 from the sixties?
>>10943902
Glad to hear :')
>>10939772
Unfortunately it got a little washed out in the rinse, I'll try a higher concentration and do some research on the best ways to keep dye in fabric. Dressed like a slouch for road trip atm, but here it is
>>10945070
looks horrible
>>10945070
is that black dye?I kinda like the gradient on it. but the black dye reminds me a lot of these>>10938684 I wonder what would happen if you put it in the dye for a really short amount of time then rinsed it out what color would it go
>>10945092
I know :/
>>10945109
Yeah, it's RIT Black
