Bringing together the collective expertise of ASBCI members, Garment Costing – everything you need to know about the cost of making clothes, was first published in print in 2018 and remains the only book of its type to specifically address all the aspects of garment costing.
We are delighted to make the Garment Costing handbook available in a low-cost ebook format. It is the only guide of its kind to comprehensively cover the complex aspect of fashion buying and manufacture, and we are very pleased to be able to make it available more widely in response to popular demand.
The Garment Costing handbook is available from Amazon priced at £9.99.
The technical handbook provides a step-by-step explanation of the garment costing process, including detailed chapters on sourcing strategy, the added-value supply chain, garment materials, labour, overheads, logistics, and garment reprocessing.
In addition to an analysis of the different stages of production and how these impact the cost of a garment, the ebook edition has been updated with a comprehensive explanation of costing calculations, complete with examples, to make it as easy as possible for fashion professionals at all stages of the supply chain to understand how to arrive at a final cost and how to price lines to ensure they make a profit.
