Silk Cocktail Dress from Canada

A fitted knee-length silk cocktail dress with a sweetheart neckline and subtle pleating, constructed from high-quality mulberry silk. It qualifies for HTS 6204.49.5050 as a women's dress of other textile materials specifically silk, being a fully made-up non-knitted garment. The pure silk excludes it from blend or knit categories.

Import Tips

• Conduct fiber burn tests if challenged on silk purity, as misdeclaration leads to higher duties or seizures

• Declare as 'of silk' only if 100% silk; partial blends require precise percentage labeling
