tie-dye shirt

Psychedelic summer garment

A tie-dye shirt is a garment colored by tie-dyeing—a technique where fabric is twisted, folded, or bunched and bound with string or rubber bands before applying dye, creating distinctive swirling or starburst patterns.

Associated with 1960s counterculture and hippie fashion, tie-dye shirts remain popular for their handmade, colorful aesthetic: She wore a tie-dye shirt to the music festival.
