Best materials for not ironing

I'm accepting I'm not going to iron anymore. What's the best fabric to be buying for reduced creases (my washing machine is a wanker and mangles everything into a creased mess)

I don't wear 100% polyester so
Tops like this www.tkmaxx.com/uk/en/women/clothing/knitwear/jumpers/midnight-blue-jumper/p/05089436
tshirt washes beautifully Have a few of the plain ones which I wear for work.
I tend to use the rinse+ option which reduces the spin/crease effect. I don't have a tumble dryer.

Hang everything up as soon as the cycle ends, use a tumble drier with a damp flannel, mine has a 15 minute warm air cycle, don't buy linen clothes. Some polyester is good, mixed fibres better than 100% cotton. If your clothes are creased on the hanger, mist with a spray and they will look a lot better by the time you come out of the shower.
I'm so lazy

You can also dampen and then blow with the hair dryer a bit.
