Import Tips
• Label divided skirts clearly to distinguish from trousers, affecting fit within ensemble definitions
• Avoid piping in non-matching fabrics exceeding minor accents, as it could disqualify identical fabric requirements
• Use commercial invoices specifying 'ensemble for retail sale' to prevent Customs splitting into individual items
