First of, here's how to stop reds from running next time, Stop reds from running
Unless you have a fondness for pink-tinted clothing, take one simple precaution to prevent red -- or other brightly dyed -- washable clothes from ruining your wash loads. Soak your new garments in a few cups of undiluted white vinegar for 10-15 minutes before their first washing. You'll never have to worry about running colors again!
Unset old stains
Older, set-in stains will often come out in the wash after being pretreated with a solution of 3 tablespoons white vinegar and 2 tablespoons liquid detergent in 1 quart (1 liter) warm water. Rub the solution into the stain, then blot it dry before washing.
Here is how you get the red out, soak in one cup of White Vinegar for about three to four hours in the hottest water your dress can handle without any detergent added to the wash, then put through a full cycle after three to four hours, use cold rinse, do not use any fabric softner in your machine or dryer as vinegar softens your laundry, it also freshens and cleans and removes stains and will remove residue from detergents left behind on your laundry. Good Luck !
