You could use Clothing Sales as a business description. For the business code, if you are a director seller of clothing you could use code 454390. If you have a clothing store, you could use one of the codes below:

  • 448130 = Children's & infants' clothing stores
  • 448140 = Family clothing stores 
  • 448110 = Men's clothing stores 
  • 448120 = Women's clothing stores 
  • 448190 = Other clothing stores

For more information, see pages 17-18 of IRS Instructions for Schedule C, Profit or Loss from Business.
