Questo/Touch Fabric from Allied Chemicals

I'd love to know exactly what this miracle fabric was made of, but can't find any description of it.

The ad reminds me of the famous Monty Python skit where a man is executed by a running pack of topless women. See beyond the jump.

Searching for "Allied Chemicals" Questro at Newspapers dot com, I got a few hits dating from around 1970, about clothing from Questro, the junior division of Wilroy, a clothing manufacturer. They referred to designs using Touch nylon from Allied Chemical. So I suspect it is just a nylon fabric.

If that didn't trigger a 60s flashback, you were too young to be there.
