1. Are the colors true to the pictures? 2. Do the colors quickly fade after a few washings? Thanks.

The shirt is black, (I ordered a black XL shirt and received a black XL shirt. Color has not faded (washed it 8 times so far in cold water). May somewhat shrink if you machine dry it too often thou, still fits me for the moment.

the colors present well in the pics, however I only bought one! I ended up going with gildan performance polyester shirts. considering the fabric used for these types of shirts, they will probably never fade!

We wash them by hand and have had no problem with fading or discoloring. Hope this helps you. We love them.

There is a tiny bit of a real pale yellow in it. I have washed mine several times as I have a toddler who inevitable ends up in my bed every night and sometimes his night time diaper cant keep up with his sippy cup of milk intake LOL, so mine is faded a lil (which gives it even more of that vintage type look) :DI absolutely LOVE mine. I have an older fashioned metal cream colored day bed and it goes together beautifully with this bed set.

I would be more concerned about the quilt coming apart or shrinking than the colors fading. I washed mine and the colors were fine, but it didn't fit on the bed (not long enough). I sent mine back. If you'll notice, on the pillow shams, the stitches don't even go all the way to the end and they are loose and not secured at all. Save your money for something better. That's what I did. I waited and found something on sale at a nice department store (the one that has the parade at Thanksgiving). Anyway, I paid twice as much but got something that I really think will last a long time.

The large printed side is not soft, but isn't exactly harsh either, with a few washing may soften (I have only laundered one time) the small printed side is soft. Love the print and colors. Would purchase again. Hope that helps.

Mine have not faded too much. I have a set in the sun and one in the shade and the full sun chain is a little faded, but I am in South Texas so that is expected. Any bright colors will fade with sun unless the coating has a UV inhibitor added to the coating.

My fabric is white so I'm not worried about fading. I think the fabric is polyester so staining hasn't been an issue.

Wash; no because everytime i wash it you can see the color coming off and now that u had washed it about 4 times i can see some color strings showing off.Straight; just the first two times i straight it looked fine but the third time it just didn't look fine.Curl; Yes, i had stick to the curls since its the only way the extentions don't look too damage.

I would say the colors are somewhere between the two. They are brighter than the Amazon photo, but not super bright. The colors are bold however and it was just what we wanted for our bedroom. I hope this helped.

I have washed them several times and they don't show any wear. They are not very soft to start with, and probably for this reason they will probably last more than most sheets. I bought for my daughter several sheet sets of much softer cotton and now they start showing wear after several washes - but not "Fairies". They seem to be durable, and they are 100% cotton while most sheets with cartoon prints come in polyester unfortunately... My 4 years old doesn't care much about thread count (they are not very soft to touch) and she loves them!

It is like the photo. Warning-the stitching may come loose and even start to change color after many washes. It was very nice when I first purchased it though.

We have one with two shades of blue. We have washed it several times has never bleed. It has not faded. It does have some spots where sun screen has gotten on it. It is great for beach. Travels well and is light

I have both the black and dark gray. They look true black to me. So far, no fading from washing and the pocket flaps stay flat. I usually wear black or FDE khakis, especially when I am in country. But they look like crap after several cycles through the wash and the pocket flats tend to curl, requiring a lot of ironing. So I switched to these TRU-SPECs and I've been happy since. I like the rip-stop material also.

Hi, no this color does not come out in the first wash. For me it starts to fade a little after 5-6 washes and I re-do the color every 6-8 weeks.

I washed them and then used fabric spray colors and fabric pens and the colors stayed fine. The problem was the fabric does not come out very nice. It came out wrinkled and had to be ironed. I had my Sunday school kids decorate them for an end of the year fun project. They were ok for that.
