Woven shirt consumption formula (Tops):
To determine fabric consumption for the woven shirt, we need to identify the individual parts of the Woven shirt (Tops). For a basic woven shirt found below parts:
- Body (Chest)
- Sleeve
- Collar
- Collar Band
- Yoke
- Cuff
Now let’s calculate fabric consumption for a Woven Shirt:

According to the buyer specifications sheet we consider the below measurements to calculate fabric consumption for Woven shirt :Â Â
Here below find below Woven Shirt consumption formula:
1. Body Fabric Consumption Formula:
 (Body Length X ½ Chest)X Number of Parts Yards
            Fabric width X 36
=Â Â (32 X 24) X 2Â Yards
        44X 36
=Â Â 1536 Â Â Yards
    1584
= 0.97Â Yds/Pc
Â
2. Sleeve Fabric Consumption Formula:
 (Sleeve Length X Armhole width X Number of Parts Yards
            Fabric width X 36
=Â Â 22 X 21 X 2Â Yards
          44 X 36
=Â Â 924Â Yards
   1584
= 0.58Â Yds/Pc
3. Collar Fabric Consumption Formula:
 Collar Length X Collar height X Number of Parts   Yards
            Fabric width X 36
= 25 X 4 X2 Â Â Yards
     44 X 36
= Â Â 200 Â Â Yards
    1584
=0.13Â Yds/Pc
Â
4. Collar Band Fabric Consumption Formula:
 Collar band Length X Collar band height X Number of Parts   Yards
            Fabric width X 36
= 19 X 2 X 2 Yards
    44X 36
= Â Â Â 76 Â Â Â Yards
    1584
=0.05Â Yds/Pc
Â
5. Yoke Fabric Consumption Formula:
 Yoke Length X Yoke height X Number of Parts   Yards
            Fabric width X 36
=Â 21 X 5 X 2 Â Â Yards
    44X 36
=Â Â 210 Â Â Yards
   1584
= 0.13Â Yds/Pc
Â
6. Pocket Fabric Consumption Formula:
 Pocket Length X Pocket Width X Number of Parts   Yards
            Fabric width X 36
=Â 6 X 5 X 2 Â Â Yards
   44X 36
=Â Â 60 Â Â Yards
   1584
= 0.04Â Yds/Pc
Â
7. Cuff Fabric Consumption Formula:
 Cuff Length X Cuff height X 4   Yards
            Fabric width X 36
=Â 4.75X 2.25 X 4 Â Â Yards
   44X 36
=Â Â 42.75 Â Â Yards
    1584
= 0.03Â Yds/Pc
Â
Now, we add the total consumption for individual parts:
Body+Sleeve+Collar+Collarband+Yoke+Pocket+Cuff
= 0.97+0.58+0.13+0.05+0.04+0.03
=1.80 yds/Pc
Now we need to add 5% wastage on per pc fabric consumption:
=2.38X 5%
=1.89 Yds/Pc
