Peo Nylon, a synthetic fab- ric, was first marketed by the Du Pont company in 1940, On May 15, the first day of nationwide nylen sales, an incredible 780,000 pairs of nylons were sold. A wide range of synthetic fab- rics were being developed and quickly presented to the buying public. As a postwar cconomy boomed, so did the need for new products and tex- tile manufacturers compet- ed with each other for the ‘next miracle fabric. Author Susannah Handley traces the rise of synthetics and the public acceptance of them from the °30s through to the present. The more wide- spread their use, the greater the impact on the fashion world. In 1954, Chanel, CS Dior and other designers presented their new lines with many combinations of synthetic fabrics. What was good enough for_ Paris designers was definitely good enough for everyone, as synthetic fabric sales con- tinued to climb. Nylon is filed with infor- mation on the growth and effect of nylon and other synthetics on the fashion world. Loaded with pic- tures that show each stage of development, Nylon pro- vides insight into a fashion revolution. -~ Terry Peters on discontinued models, demonstrators & reconditioned machines.
