Spotlight on Tie-Dye

Hunting & Gathering

It's everywhere: in snaps from Coachella on your Instagram feed, on the backs of celebrities (Kate Bosworth, Alessandra Ambrosio) and garnering attention on the Fashion Week runways. There's no doubt about it—tie-dye is making a comeback. And not the rainbow-colored, dazed-and-confused designs of the '70s, but rather an elevated, refined form of the technique. Designers are now artfully combining layers of vibrant indigos and colored dyes, adding a modern touch by using eco-friendly materials and lush fabrics ranging from silk to denim. 

The trend has trickled down from the streets of New York and the coast of California to Sarasota, at First Street's newest boutique, Scout and Molly's. The fledgling outpost of the larger franchise carries designers like Gypsy 05 and MarYsol, which are ripe with swirling, indigo-dyed patterns.
