Tie-Dye

When I usually think of tie-dye I think of multicolor Grateful Dead t-shirts. Not any more. This past spring designers drew inspiration from 70's Woodstock and transformed tie-dye effects into modern usable designs. By going more mono-chromatic and using simple design shapes, designers have made this "do it your self" at home craft into an upscale yet laid back look of the season.
