MPX5096655: Clothing Underwear: Undercover fashions in multi-directional stretch. The technical men of Du Pont have described their latest product as multi-directional stretch tricot fabric in "Lycra" elastomeric fibre. But to the fashion designers the fabric opens up a whole new field in fashions for ladies' undergarments - although it seems likely that much of their work will go un-noticed, hidden beneath overgarments. Which all seems a great pity for, as model Toni White so attractively demonstrates, designs in the new fabric are good enough to be worn on their own. The pantie-girdle and bra Toni is wearing in the picture are by Everlastic. November 1969 / Bridgeman Images
