/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

Hello there /help/,

A friend of mine gave me a black coat (a medium-long Zara coat) for my cosplay shenanigans. Problem is, he tried to clean a stain and accidentaly decolored the shoulder/chest/arm (think a black coat with dark blue "stains"). I was thinking about sewing cloth on top of it in the shoulders ala pic related but I think my skills would only allow me to do it while creating the coat, not over the actual shape.

Is there any way to dye it? Asking my buddies they all warned me about dyeing something which is unevenly colored, as the final look will nonetheless be uneven.

Any idea/tip about dyeing it or fixing it?

Thanks in advance!
