Fashion industry (informal) (3,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rag trade

(Other definitions for rag trade that I've seen before include "Clothing business (informal)" , "Slang for the garment industry" , "National winner" , "Clothing business (colloq.)" , "dressmaking competition" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
