Dyeing a Viscose Dress?

I have a dark purple maxi dress made of 97% viscose and 3% elastane and I am wanting to dye it so it is paler in colour. Its for a fancy dress, I'm going as Meg from Hercules. Is this possible and how would I go about this? What is the best product to use?

since viscose is a natural fibre, you can use pretty much any traditional dyeing method, but you have to be careful because it is a lot more fragile than regular cotton fabric. So if you use bleach yo have to be extra careful to not leave it in for too long.
