mate selection, almost entirely. it's sensitive to body condition to the extent that if a woman sees the same hairdresser consistently enough they can somewhat reliably tell if she's gotten pregnant. it's also an easy indicator of social class and stability ie: do they have the time and resources to take care of it?

I would think so. Blocking knitwear has been a thing just about as long as fiber art itself. As to how well it will work on synthetics specifically I couldn't tell you. Now all that said, you would have to allow the garment to fully dry on your body, and washing them would likely reset the fibers.
