Summer wear

The price is also about 20% higher than that of last year.

Why did the raw materials go down and the finished products did not fall? Wang Yong, vice president of the Chaotianmen Chongqing clothing association, said there were three main reasons.

First, most of the materials for women's summer wear are chemical fibers, and the fluctuation of cotton prices has little effect on the price of clothing.

The two is in the cost of clothing.

Raw material

Accounted for only about 20%, labor, energy and so on rose fiercely, clothes have to rise.

Three, clothing enterprises are mostly made of high priced clothing, and prices will not drop.

An example of clothing industry in Chongqing is an example of a windbreaker priced at 700 yuan. The cost of cloth is about 200 yuan.

The rest is the processing fee from 80 yuan to 100 yuan, 210 yuan for the shopping mall, 200 yuan for labor and logistics.

Therefore, raw material links are not the main link of clothing cost.
