STYLE : FASHION : A New Wrinkle

Hold the starch and unplug the iron. The most carefree summer clothes are meant to look wrinkled. Gauzy, loose-fitting skirts, tops and trousers take on extra-casual flair when they’re made from natural fibers--silk, flax, cotton, wool--that tend to pucker or crease on their own. No need to worry when packing for vacation. Just wad up your wardrobe, then grin and wear it.
