Product description

As requested, the sample will be returned to you. The submitted sample, Style 4243, is a toddler girl’s blouse and shorts set. The blouse is constructed from 60% cotton, 40% polyester printed woven fabric. The blouse features an A line silhouette with wide hemmed bottom, short cap sleeves, a round neckline, a smocked bodice with embroidery and applique work, an inverted pleat skirt-like lower body and a four button back opening that fastens right over left. The shorts are constructed from 60% cotton, 40% polyester yarn dyed gingham fabric. The capri style shorts feature a fabric covered elasticized waistband and ruffle fabric at the leg openings. Style 4243 consists of two or more garments. Note 14 of Section XI, of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United State (HTSUS), requires that these textile garments of different headings be separately classified, thus preventing classification of this style as a set.
