This is a tailored two-piece women's suit consisting of a jacket and matching trousers made from knitted synthetic polyester fabric, designed for professional wear. It qualifies as a suit under Chapter 61 Note 3(a) because the jacket and trousers are made from identical fabric, and the synthetic fibers predominate, placing it under tariff item 6104.13.00 for suits of synthetic fibres.
