I am so pleased clientco has a dress down policy. I have non-iron shirts for interviews.
Mrs BP insists on ironing both for some odd reason.....

You'll be wearing those nasty polyester easy care things soon.
Personally, I just outsourced the ironing to the local dry cleaners for about 80p a pop, easy peasy.
Just wash, hang out, and wear.
