13、). prEN 13402-3, Size designation of clothes - Part 3: Measurements and intervals. prEN 13402-4, Size designation of clothes - Part 4: Coding system. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest b
14、y September 2002, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by September 2002. According to the CENKENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic,

I nt rod u cti on Different sizing systems in Europe mean that different clothing size designations in use in European countries ca
16、n fit persons with identical or almost identical body measurements. This European Standard is a reference document for a standardized European size designation system for different types of garment. 3 EN 13402-212002 (E) 1 Scope This European Standard specifies primary and secondary dimensions for s
17、pecified types of garments to be used in combination with EN 13402-1. The primary aim of this European Standard is the establishment of 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 o
18、f the person that the garment is intended to fit. Provided the size of the persons body (as indicated by the specified dimensions) has been determined, in accordance with EN 13402-1 this designation system will facilitate the choice of garments that fit. The size designation system is based on body
19、and not on garment measurements. Choice of garment measurements is normally determined by the designer and the manufacturer who will make appropriate allowances to accommodate the type, position of wear, style, cut and fashion elements of the garment. 2 Normative references This European Standard in
20、corporates by dated or undated reference provisions from other publications. These normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the publications are listed hereafter. For dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications apply to this Eu
21、ropean standard only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision. For undated references the latest edition of the publication referred to applies (including amendments). EN 13402-1 :2001, Size designation of clothes - Terms, definitions and body measurement procedure (IS0 3635: 1981 modified).
22、 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this European Standard, the following terms and definitions apply. 3.1 primary dimension those body measurement, in centimetres, that shall be used to designate the size of a garment for the consumer EN 13402-11 3.2 secondary dimension those body measurem

24、mary and secondary dimensions are defined as shown in Table 1. These body measurements provide the basis for the designation of clothing sizes, independently from the product itself, for garment types as diverse as jackets, skirts, underwear, corsetry and head wear. Body measurements are listed sepa
25、rately for mens, womens, boys and girls clothing. For infants, only the body height is used as primary dimension, see EN 13402-1:2001, 3.13. The primary dimension will constitute the basic size designation system. 4 EN 13402-212002 (E) The heights and girths are measured in accordance with EN 13402-
26、1. The primary dimension will constitute 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 following example explains how to use the table: The relevant indication of a jacket shall be designated by the chest gi
27、rth, indicated on a pictogram. Waist girth and/or body height may be given as further optional measurements. Shoe size is a code based on the foot length in cm. Hand size is a code based on the hand girth in cm (see EN 13402-1). 5 EN 13402-212002 (E) Dimensions 1. Outer garments Jackets suits Overco
