This document establishes a system for designating the sizes of tights.
The system is based on three criteria:
-
identification of dimensions;
-
description of the methods of determining size designations from survey data; and
-
indication of size designations for garment labelling.
Examples of size designations are given in Annex B.
NOTE Tights are sometimes called by other names, e.g. “pantyhose”.
