Skin-on-Frame: What did I do wrong?

I thought that polyester was not affected by moisture or ambient temps but lately as the temp falls in the evenings my skin becomes slack. If it keeps it up at the same incremental pace it will not be in very good shape by the end of summer. It tightens up in the sun as the temprature rises but it is not as tight as when I first put it on.This evening it is very slack, to the point of sagging noticeably.
