We often see shirts and other clothes wrinkled, but we have never heard of swimsuits wrinkled. At the same time, Spandex fabric has good resistance to washing. It will not deform or pill when washed. It is easy to wash and dry. The fabric is very comfortable and can be worn close to the body. In addition to being used in swimsuits, it is suitable for applications that require high elasticity.
