About the fashion industry

The fashion industry is responsible for designing and manufacturing clothing. Fashion is a term used to describe clothing, footwear or accessories which are currently popular. Primarily the fashion industry is made up of the production of the raw materials, the design of fashion products, manufacturing of goods and then the sale of goods including advertising. Advancements in technology have played a crucial part in the development of the fashion industry. Clothing is now produced in large quantities using specialist machinery.

The fashion industry is becoming increasingly globalised, many large retailers now use suppliers from all over the world. Fashion items are often produced in countries like China and India where materials and labour costs are lower.
