I have a blue tracksuit and its colour has faded in some spots only. Actually what happened was once I wanted to wash it so I put it in the washing machine, added some detergent and when I was going to switch on the machine, I found that electricity was not there. So I left my clothing undisturbed till the light came on. After one or two hours when the light came back on I switched on the machine and washed my clothes, but after my tracksuit dried I found that it had faded at some spots. I was very disappointed. Please help.

Leaving detergent in contact with fabric over time can cause a bleaching or fading effect. There is nothing you can do to repair the faded areas as the detergent removed the color. You can try to redye the clothes, however, the faded area will probably not take the dye as well as the rest of the fabric.
