11 Tie-Dye Outfits You'll Feel Bold In
Oh, tie-dye. While we're personally big fans of the bold print, we get why it's often associated with slightly less fashion-focused moments such as childhood art projects or your dad's psychedelic hippie T-shirt he just won't throw away (never throw it away!). However, because summer is upon us and we're ready and willing to give bright colors a spin in just about every way possible, we decided to turn to street style for some modern inspiration on how to wear tie-dye in 2018.
Below, you'll find a stylish assortment of outfits from ladies such as Susie Bubble, off-duty models, and fashion mainstays such as Giovanna Engelbert and Veronika Heilbrunner. From classic tee and jean pairings to outside-the-box combinations strictly for the sartorial adventurers, there's something for everyone. And if your closet has a tie-dye-shaped hole in it, be sure to shop our picks.
Who says you can't mix and match your tie-dye?
Ease your way into tie-dye by styling it with a pair of versatile blue jeans.
Follow Patricia Manfield's lead and break up a head-to-toe tie-dye look with a brown belt.
A tie-dye dress feels fresh and effortless when paired with summer sandals.
Toss a tie-dye jacket over a monochrome sweatsuit.
If there's one thing we know about Giovanna Engelbert, it's that she doesn't shy away from bold colors—and we're all about it.
Style a tie-dye sweatshirt with black jeans and mules like our fashion editor Aemilia Madden.
We're here for a goth tie-dye moment à la Veronika Heilbrunner.
If Anna approves, we approve.
