PVC cloth can be fun to wear, but can be expensive to buy in ready-made garments, but cheap and easy to sew from the roll if you are so inclined (if you have the right sewing machine foot!).
Sometimes known as "Pleather" (especially in North America) in a cloth context it was invented to satisfy a need for a cheap leather-look product. It is made by bonding a thin layer of PVC plastic to a cloth backing.
It comes in "real leather look" and "patent leather look" in various colours and thicknesses. You also get 2-way stretch and 4-way stretch PVC. However, "suede-look" PVC cloth seems not to be produced.
Most Sex Shops sell PVC clothing, often at outrageous prices. If you are going Fetish Clubbing, and must conform to a dress-code, an article of PVC clothing from such a shop is usually sufficient and so will often be a first Fetish clothing purchase.
