Garment dyeing is applying dye to a finished garment rather than making the garment from predyed yarn or fabric.
The production benefits of doing this are that garments can be made in ecru (undyed form) and sent to be dyed to any colour to suit sales/fashion requirements. For instance if for example the colour navy stops selling but green sales increase, no problem just dye according to the colour trend with the shortest lead time.
The problem with the predyed yarn/fabric production route is that having ordered and made too many navy garments which are not selling you then have to source green fabric or yarn to make extra green garments this gives a much longer lead time (by the time you have your green garments ready for the shops the latest trend has become red!).
There is enormous potential for sourcing cheaper garment manufacturing abroad in ready to dye form and stocking this close to the actual market ready for a quick response to market colour demands.

Tyrian refers to a shade of purple dye that was historically produced from the secretions of the murex snail, predominantly in the ancient city of Tyre, located in present-day Lebanon. This dye was highly prized in antiquity for its vibrant color and was often associated with royalty and wealth, leading to its use in garments for nobility. The term "Tyrian" can also describe items or colors derived from or inspired by this distinctive dye.
Bleeding of dye refers to the unintended transfer of color from one fabric or material to another, often occurring during washing or exposure to moisture. This phenomenon can result in discoloration, where the dye from one item seeps into another, leading to stains or uneven coloring. It is particularly common with fabrics that have not been properly set or fixed, making them more susceptible to color loss. To prevent dye bleeding, it is advisable to wash garments separately and use color-safe detergents.

The most expensive dye in ancient Rome was Tyrian purple, derived from the mucus of the Murex sea snail. It was highly prized for its rich, deep hue and was associated with royalty and nobility, leading to its use in garments worn by emperors and high-ranking officials. The labor-intensive process of extracting the dye made it extremely costly, often prohibiting its use by anyone below the upper classes.
