      Plastic: This is a favorite trick because wrinkles are caused by friction. You will need to pack all your clothes in individual plastic bags or some that came from your dry cleaners. Best option for suits, silk, and other fine wear.

      Military fold: This is a favorite because it also allows you to pack more. Fold in three the long way, then roll from the bottom. Great for pants, shorts, T-shirts, and some shirts.

      Pack wrinkle free clothing: If at all possible this will save you lots of time. Buy clothing that has wrinkle guard already built in. This does not work on suits, but for regular clothes this is good.
