This time, how- ever, woven stretch fabrics may find themselves the darling of the consumer. Knits have given renewed in- terest to this former failure. _Back in 1964-65, the consumer was not sold on the stretch, re- covery, comfort, wrinkle-re- sistance, ease-of-care prop- erties knits offered.' Now the consumer is. Furthermore,in the mid-sixties, the consumer could not tell, just by looking, which woven fabrics had stretch capabilities. Also, since woven stretch garments carried higher price tags, consumers ignored them. Today, there is effective two-way stretch in woven fabrics, where the mid-sixties predeces- sors chiefly offered one-way stretch. The recovery power of the new woven stretch fabrics of today is far superior to the old. plus today they are more interesting- they. offer a wider range of patterns and textures.
