PVC CLOTHES

PVC clothing, commonly known as "vinyl clothing", is shiny clothing made of the plastic polyvinyl
chloride(PVC). The PVC plastic is also called vinyl. For this reason, this type of clothing is also called vinyl
clothing. PVC is sometimes confused with the similarly shiny patent leather.

The terms "PVC", "vinyl" and "PU" tend to be used interchangeably by retailers for clothing
made from shiny plastic-coated fabrics. These fabrics usually consist of a backing woven from
polyester fibers with a surface coating of shiny plastic. The plastic layer itself is typically a blend
of PVC and polyurethane (PU), with 100% PVC producing a stiff fabric with a glossy shine and
100% PU producing a stretchy fabric with a silky shine. A manufacturer's label may say, for
example, 67% polyester, 33% polyurethane for a fabric that contains no PVC; or 80% polyvinyl
chloride, 20% polyurethane with mention of the polyester backing omitted.

The PVC can also be produced in bright colours (black, red, white, blue, orange, pink, silver,
striped, etc.), adding further visual stimulus to the physical sensations produced by the material.
The more frequently found colors are black and red. The PVC clothes are very associated with
retro-futuristic look, Goth, Punk, alternative fashions and clothing fetish. A common stereotype
is the image of a dominatrix wearing a skin-tight PVC catsuit, usually jet-black. In some cities it
is more common to see people wearing PVC clothes, especially in large cities such as Berlin,
London, New York City, Montreal, San Francisco, etc.

HISTORY
The plastics were used in clothing since its invention, particularly in raincoats. But PVC clothing
became more noted in the 1960s and early 1970s fashion trend. The fashion designers of that era
saw the PVC plastic as the ideal material to design futuristic clothes. During that era, boots,
raincoats, dresses and other PVC garments were made in many colors and even transparent and
worn in public areas to some degrees. At that time it was also common to see PVC clothes on
films and TV series such as The Avengers, for example. And since then these shiny plastic
clothes became a fetish object.

In mid 1990s, clothes made of PVC have been prevalent in young people's fashions, particularly
in jackets, skirts and trousers, also appearing in the media. During the mid-1990s it was common
to see presenters, models, actresses, actors, singers and other celebrities wearing PVC clothes on
TV and magazines. As fashions come round and round again, it would seem that PVC are
appearing again in mainstream street fashions as well as continuing to be central to the fetish
scene.

Fashion designers such as Jean Paul Gaultier, Yves Saint Laurent, Pierre Cardin and André
Courrèges have used PVC in their collections. Since 2010, the PVC has been the target of
fashion not only for the female public but also to the male public.
