Removing Colour Transfer on Multicoloured Clothing?

Removing Colour Transfer on Multicoloured Clothing - dress with blue bodice and white skirt with blue stainsMy husband, in his infinite wisdom thought it would be a good idea to wash our daughter's blue jean and white cotton sundress with my multi-shade blue skirt. The skirt is handwash only because the dyes run whenever it's washed. He didn't check the dress before throwing it in the dryer and now it has blue splotches on the white skirt that will not come out. I've tried Resolve stain remover, Oxiclean stain remover, and multiple washes, but nothing has helped. Is there any way to fix this? Or is it ruined?

Been there! Not a good situation . I have had luck with covering the stain with a thin layer of baking soda and adding a few drops of white vinegar until it bubbles up. Then rub in a few drops of simply Dawn dish soap. Not the x power or any but the original. Sometimes it takes two treatments but usually works for me. Wash in cold once stains are gone to get rid of vinegar smell.

You can try the Rit Color Grabber. Good luck.

I agree with Judy on the Rit Color Grabber. I have a clumsy laundry person at home who did this to my dress (Hi, hubby!) and Rit was the best.
