Textiles and Garment (constituency)

The Textiles and Garment functional constituency is a functional constituency in the elections for the Legislative Council of Hong Kong, first created in 1995 as one of the nine new functional constituencies under the electoral reform, carried out by the then Governor Chris Patten in which the electorate consisted of total 60,568 eligible voters related to the textile and garment industry. It was abolished by the colonial Legislative Council and dissolved after the transfer of the sovereignty in 1997.

The constituency was recreated for the 1998 Legislative Council election unless its electorate base has been narrowed which is composed of textiles and garment associations and traders only. After a major electoral overhaul in 2021, the registered voters are restricted from 1,607 in 2016 to 348 corporate voters of the designated associations.
