Scope

1.1 These tables list body measurements of girls sizes. Although these are body measurements, they can be used as a baseline in designing apparel for girls in this size range when considering such factors as fabric type, ease for body movement, styling, and fit.

1.2 The maximum age for the Girl’s chart is 12 ½ years old to the size 20.

1.3 The size table includes the range of toddler sizes, these values are for both girl’s & boy’s and will be included in the boy’s standard as well.

1.4 These tables list body measurements for the complete range of Girls sizing. Slim subjects are of same stature (height), with a slimmer body, and lower body weight than regular subjects as illustrated by the measurement charts.

1.5 The values stated in either acceptable SI units or inch-pound units shall be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system must be used independently of the other, without combining values in any way.

1.6 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

Significance and Use

The use of the body measurement information in Tables 1-6 will assist manufacturers in developing patterns and garments that are consistent with the current anthropometric characteristics of the population of interest. This practice should in turn reduce or minimize consumer confusion and dissatisfaction related to apparel sizing. (Also refer to ISO 3635 Size Designation Procedures.)
