One word: knits

Nearly all of my work clothes are jersey knits or crinkle polyester.

I've got some cotton pants for the dog days of summer, and I just don't
care if they're wrinkles. Even if I ironed them, they'd be wrinkled
by the time I drove to work.

Even my knit tops would wrinkle if left in the dryer.

Yes, cotton is bad about wrinkling but I find 100% cotton to be extremely hot
in the summer and I just steer clear of it winter or summer. Linen is nice
in the summer but it wrinkles terribly, too.
