Industry classification of clothing


classification of clothing

It is already difficult to find a standard for clothing classification, and the undisputed classification is based on gender, which can be divided into three categories: men's clothing, women's clothing, children's clothing, and unisex clothing. In the clothing industry, industry insiders usually do not classify it this way, but instead divide it into: knitting and tatting.

The production speed of knitted clothing is fast and the difficulty is lower than that of woven clothing, so the price will also be cheaper. Although China has abundant human resources, it is still human resources that account for an important proportion of clothing production costs.

Usually, knitted clothing can be produced by one worker and one machine per day with proficiency, depending on the complexity of the clothing.

Another important factor that determines the cost of clothing is the accessories on the clothing, which will increase the cost and, more importantly, require labor costs. Accessories are usually manually assembled, which not only leads to a long production period but also increases the number of non-conforming products.

There are many types of clothing, and due to the different basic forms, varieties, uses, production methods, and raw materials of clothing, various types of clothing also exhibit different styles and characteristics, which vary greatly and are very rich. Different classification methods result in different names for clothing in our daily lives.
