Costing of Woven Basic Pants Formula

…….(½ waist X Front rise) + (½ Thigh X In seam beam length) X 4

……………………………………..36 X Fabric Width

Let,

• ½ waist = 28 cm
• Front rise = 14 cm
• ½ thigh = 18 cm
• Inseam length = 72 cm
• Fabric width= 45’’

……………………………………(28 X 14) + (18 X 72) X 4
Consumption / pics = …………………………………………… yds + 5% wastage
……………………………………………6.45 X 45 X 36

= 0.583 yds

Consumption / dozen = 0.583 X 12 = 7 yds

Here, fabric price = $ 4.0/yds
Fabric price / dozen = 4 X 7 = $ 28
