Why Your Clothes Get Wrinkled

If you're wondering why your clothes always get wrinkled, the simple answer is because of heat and water. The fabric in clothing is made up of bonded molecules. When they get wet or heat is added, the bonds are broken. As the fabric cools, new bonds form that lock the fibers into a new shape, causing wrinkles.

It's All About the Fabric

How wrinkly your clothes get largely depends upon the type of fabric. Here are some fabrics that are prone to wrinkles.

• Linen
• Cotton
• Rayon

While fabrics play a large role in wrinkles, how you're washing them does too. Here are just a few of the reasons you and your washing machine are creating wrinkled clothing.

• Overloading the washer
• Using water that's too hot for the fabric
• Mixing loads (i.e. heavy fabrics with delicates)

How to Prevent Wrinkles

If you don't want to spend every morning ironing or steaming your clothing, here are some tips to help prevent wrinkles.

• Keep drawers and closets organized — don't cram items in, it'll just cause wrinkles.
• Hang items up immediately.
• Unload the dryer when it stops and properly fold and hang up clothing.
• Know what to fold and what to hang (i.e. hang up dress shirts but fold sweaters).
