Overview

This HTS subcategory, 6204.29.40.88, specifically classifies women's or girls' ensembles that are composed of other textile materials and are not specifically covered by more detailed descriptions. The defining characteristic of goods within this classification is that they must contain 70 percent or more by weight of silk or silk waste. These ensembles can include a variety of coordinated garments intended to be worn together, such as jackets with skirts, trousers, or dresses, all meeting the silk content requirement.

To distinguish this category from its sibling, 6204.29.40.90 ("Other"), it is crucial to focus on the material composition. While both fall under "other textile materials" for ensembles, this specific subcategory requires a predominant silk content (70% or more by weight). The sibling category would encompass ensembles made from other textile materials not meeting this specific silk threshold or other designated fabric types.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification into 6204.29.40.88 is final once the ensemble meets the criteria of being made of "other textile materials," is classified as an "ensemble" under heading 6204, and contains at least 70 percent silk or silk waste by weight. Examples could include silk blouse and trouser sets, or silk jacket and skirt pairings where the silk content is the dominant material.
