Morphology

wrinkleproof = wrinkle + proof (transparent) = wrinkle + proof

Formed by the clear compound 'wrinkle' + 'proof' following a productive English pattern (e.g., waterproof) meaning 'resistant to wrinkling'.

Etymology

Wrinkleproof comes from the two words wrinkle 'a small fold in cloth' and proof 'resistant to'. Think of it like waterproof or bulletproof — it means the fabric resists folds and stays smooth.
