You can not dye black material. However, you can remove some of the dye of a black cotton garment using bleach or a product known as Discharge Paste. Then you can tie dye or paint with dye on the white or near-white areas. If you use bleach, you must first get a chemical sometimes known as 'bleach stop'. Washing alone is not enough to completely stop the bleach from acting to weaken your fabric. After bleaching parts of your black garment, you must soak the garment in the 'bleach stop' to prevent the bleach from continuing to act on your fabric.
Using bleach, or to a lesser extent using discharge paste, requires extra care because these chemicals are harsh. But used carefully they can help create stunning effects.
Once a shirt has been tie-dyed with a permanent dye, the dye is set and the shirt has been dried, you can launder as you normally would. It is advisable to wash it alone the first time, just in case the dye is not completely set, and runs. this could result in the damaging of other things you wash it with.
I've tried dyeing a pair of pants in the same colour. But failed. I suggest bleaching first? Yeah, I think bleaching is possible so that the colour will be more lighter, and you can dye it :)

Materials: old T-shirt, string, package of dye
Tools: Large old pan, clean stick for stiring, iron
This is how you do it:
Spread an old T-shirt out flat. Gather it in the center, gathering front and back in the same handful. Wrap string around the gathered piece several times. Tie the string, with a bow so that you can untie it later.
Continue gathering and tying, as many times as you can. Show how to get balanced design - you match each tie on the left side with one of the right side.
Mix dye in an old pan, following the directions that come with the package. Use very hot water.
Put the whole T-shirt under water, stir with a clean stick until the T-shirt is as dark as you want it. Rinse in cold water and wring out. Until the strings and hang the skirt up to dry. Have the shirt ironed to make the dye more permanent. Whenever you wash the shirt, use cool water.

No i believe it is just a colour of shirt
Dye is color made from plants and bark, used to dye fabrics. Tie dye is a form of painting tie-dyed T-shirts; the owner twists the shirt, then uses various colors of dye to drench the shirt. When the shirt is untwisted, the dye has made unique patterns.
It takes about 24 hours to the tye dye shirt to dry.
Scarlet Red tie and white shirt. Or. Black tie and white shirt. Or. White tie and dark blue shirt. Or. Electric blue tie and black shirt.
Start with a clean t-shirt in a material, like cotton, that will take the dye well.Read the directions on the dye. It will likely recommend a presoak that will prepare the shirt to accept the dye better. Follow the directions on this.Fold the shirt or tie it up in rubberbands. The way you bind the shirt now will create the pattern of the dye.Dip the shirt into different colors of dye, squirt the dye on from squeeze bottles, or pour the dye onto the shirt. Use colors that go together (such as blues, yellows and greens, with no purples) to prevent making a brown shirt.Allow the shirt to dry and then rinse it out. Follow the directions on the dye for a way to set the dye. This usually involves washing it very carefully once before you wear it.
a red shirt or black tie, it can be any color shirt, but make sure the tie has atleast some black if not all of it is black.

Its easy! All you have to wear is really depending on you!! if you are lazy... sweats are cozy and if your active... black or white basketball pants are great! What i wear with tie dye is definitely tight blue jean shorts!
