Where were clothes made in world war 2?

Clothes came from the same places they came from before WW2 but their supply was influenced like every other commodity not essential to fighting to win the war. Clothing manufactorers that produced clothes for civilians before the war would have switched to fulfilling Government contracts for Uniforms for masses of Men and Women in the Armed Forces. British Civilians were encouraged to "Make Do and Mend" to reduce the demand on these clothes manufactoring industries whose materials (such as Cotton) would largly have had to come from abroad (such as India) as British industry was geared towards manfuacturing and exporting commodities back to the countries where the raw materials had been imported from (for a profit). Space on Shipping would have been at a premium as there was a shortage of Ships and a priority given to importing War Materials. On the whole, Wartime industries carried on as they had until they had their workforce conscripted, their factories were bombed or they became unprofitable through scarcity of materials or inability to access markets.
