I am so excited for FALL!! I love when the weather starts changing and we can start pulling out leggings and sweaters, cardigans and scarves, boots and leg warmers! Oh I could go on and on – it is such a fun time of year!
Today I am so excited to introduce you to a shop that has super cute and comfortable clothes for this Fall – Tie Dye By Pure Intent! No matter what you are looking for this new Season – scarves, maxis, dresses, cardigans, tops – they have it all!
Kim Williams is the owner and creator of Pure Intent! Kim worked for Corporate America and ran her own printing and graphic finishing business for over 25 years! She then decided to follow her heart and passion to the creative side of garment decorating, where Tie Dye By Pure Intent was created!
She says, “I use different dyes and preparations for my garments, I strip color out, add color back in, and layer dyes. I use different fabrics and make up styles in darks and lights to achieve the looks I want. I use a variety of banding styles and techniques. Also, I am focused on over-dyeing – starting with a color and dyeing over it multiple times to get beautiful deep rich colors. I have similar styles in different colors because every garment is personalized since every dye batch is unique.
As for my dye process: my garments are tied with bands or string, soaked in a material to help make the fabric color absorbent. I like to use Rayon best because I like the drape and flow of it and the way it takes on color when I dye it. Then I mix a color and do a test to make sure it cures and how much shrinkage I am going to get. I add color by dipping it in the dye, or stripping color out and then adding it back in, or applying it in specific areas. The dye gets 24 hours to cure, then it is un-banded and washed in a solution and rinsed until the water runs clear. Everything I make is hung to dry. the testing process takes me a couple of days, and if I use multiple processes it’s a couple of days for each one. Then I have to re-size the patterns for shrinkage before they are cut & sewn.”
Kim sews herself and can make any size from small to 3XL. I love that she fits EVERY body’s shape and size! All of her fabrics are so soft and comfortable for any lady that gets to wear them. Her creative designs are perfect, so every person will find SOMETHING they love – Super comfy {for moms like me that just want to feel good during the busy day!} and they just look good on everyone!
I love this top with these leggings and boots! So perfect for the cooler weather! Doesn’t it make you so excited?!
