Classified in HTS 6204.49.50 as a dress of other textile materials, since silk blends not exceeding wool/cotton limits fall here in the 'other' category. It is a made-up article excluding swimwear.

Import Tips

• Check for right-over-left closure to confirm women's classification per Chapter notes

• Document retail packaging to prevent reclassification as industrial or unfinished goods
