There are few businesses willing to do custom dyeing-to-order these days. You will probably not be able to find a local dyer or dry cleaner willing to redye your clothing for you, but you can mail it to one of the five dyeing services listed in the topmost box, below.
If your garment is 100% polyester, you should probably just forget it. Few dyers are willing to dye it for you. Polyester is difficult and unpleasant to immersion-dye a single solid color, and the customer is often unwilling to pay the cost of the materials and effort—or the risk that the garment will be destroyed by the extended boiling required.
There are two types of custom dyers listed here: those who will redye your premade garment a different color, and those who will custom dye a new garment to your specifications.
The following companies or individuals have registered their contact information as given below....
SPECTRUM Custom Fabric Dyeing is a professional dyeing service specializing in dresses, jeans, and other textiles containing natural fabrics such as cotton, linen, rayon, tencel, hemp, silk and wool.

Metro Dyeing Service will dye quantities as small as a single garment. Their site says they will dye synthetic fibers that other dyers won't touch, if they are currently undyed (such as a white polyester wedding dress). Located in New York.
