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”.
