Clothing prices in UK rise by 1.6% in November

Prices of women’s and men’s outerwear rose particularly in the period between October and November 2016, according to the UK consumer price inflation: Nov 2016 report by the Office for National Statistics (ONS).

This is the largest October to November rise since 2010 and continues the rather volatile movements observed during 2016, especially over the latest 3 months. The rise follows a relatively small increase in prices in October 2016, which resulted in a downward contribution to the change in the rate of a similar magnitude to the upward effect seen in November.
