This represents a year-on-year decrease of approximately 1.45% over this period, suggesting a continual reduction potentially due to changing fashion dynamics or increased domestic production. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the last five years reflects a slight decrease, highlighting nuanced shifts in market preferences and global supply chain dynamics.
Future trends to watch for include:

- The impacts of economic factors such as trade policies and tariffs.
- Technological advancements in textile production affecting global competitiveness.
- Potential revitalization in demand given cultural or fashion trends.
