katz in boots

I have read recent threads about people buying dresses off eBay from China. Seems to be a range of satisfaction levels with the garments.
I notice that many of these dresses feature a dipped effect, where the skirts either gets darker or lighter towards the hem, and wonder how people are finding these stand up to washing.
Reason I ask is that a lady at our rink bought one for her grand daughter, on first washing the dye ran badly. It can still be worn, but probably not for a competition.
How have others fared with washing these shaded dresses, are they colourfast or do they run?
