    Vintage 1970's FARAH Leisure Suit Blazer Jacket Navy & White Dogtooth Check Men's 38-40
    HISTORY OF CRIMPLENE FABRIC
    The fabric enjoyed popularity upon introduction in the 1950s in response to its convenient 'wash-and-wear' properties. Crimplene was often used to make the typical A-line dress of 1960s Fashion. Likewise, it was popular amongst men in British Mod Culture for use in garish button-down shirts.
    In the early 1970s, Crimplene began to fall out of fashion. Other, lighter-weight polyester fabrics like Trevira replaced Crimplene for their ease of movement and ventilation. Crimplene is seldom used today as fashion-preferences have drifted towards more natural cottons.
    Crimplene suits were regarded in some countries as "working-men's going-out clothes".
