ie: My clothes are new. I bought them at a clothing store in the city.
Save all your old clothes because the clothing industry is raising its prices.

Strictly speaking, clothing refers to a collection or group of clothes, but the two words can usually be used interchangeably. Clothing is a little more formal.
