10、member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, govern
11、mental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintena

ISO 2017 All rights reserved vBS ISO 8559-2:2017BS ISO 8559-2:2017Size designation of clothes Part 2: Primary and secondary dimension indicators 1 Scope This document specifies primary and secondary dimensions for specified types of garments to be used in combina
19、tion with ISO 8559-1 (anthropometric definitions for body measurement). The primary aim of this document is to establish a size designation system that can be used by manufacturers and retailers to indicate to consumers (in a simple, direct and meaningful manner) the body dimensions of the person th
20、at the garment is intended to fit. Provided that the size of the persons body (as indicated by the specified dimensions) has been determined in accordance with ISO 8559-1, this designation system will facilitate the choice of garments that fit. This information can be indicated by labelling, etc. Th
21、e size designation system is based on body measurements, not garment measurements. The choice of garment measurements is normally determined by the designer and the manufacturers who make appropriate allowances to accommodate the type and position of wear, style, cut and fashion elements of the garm

These body measurements provide the basis for the designation of c
27、lothing sizes, independently from the product itself, for garment types as diverse as jackets, skirts, underwear, corsetry (intimate apparel) and headwear. Body measurements are listed separately for mens, womens, boys and girls clothing. For infants, body height is used as the primary dimension (se
28、e ISO 8559-1) except for headwear, socks, stockings and gloves. Heights and girths are measured in accordance with ISO 8559-1. The primary dimension constitutes the basic size designation system. A number of the secondary dimensions, as given in Table 1, may be used in such a designation system. The
29、 following example explains how to use the table. EXAMPLE The relevant indication of a mens jacket is designated by the chest girth, indicated on a pictogram. Waist girth and/or body height and/or back shoulder width can be given as further optional measurements. Hand size is a code based on the han

48、eneral The size designation of each garment shall comprise the range of the primary dimension(s) (PD in Table 1), in centimetres, of the intended wearer of that garment and, optionally, the range of the secondary dimension(s) (SD in Table 1) in centimetres. Where practicable, the standard pictogram
49、Figure 1, as given in ISO 8559-1, should be used as a means of indicating the size designation. The range of the dimensions shall be expressed as the minimum and the maximum dimensions of the body for which the garment has been designed. EXAMPLE For a garment designed to fit a body of which the height is between 174 cm and 178 cm, the minimum dimension is 174 cm and the maximum dimension is 178 cm, and then the dimension range is expresse
