Overview
This HTS category, 6211.49.50.50, specifically classifies women's and girls' upper body garments that are not knitted or crocheted, are made from textile materials other than those specified in preceding subheadings, and are not classified under heading 6206 (which covers women's or girls' blouses, shirts and shirt-blouses). The key distinguishing feature of this particular node is its material composition: garments in this category must contain 70 percent or more by weight of silk or silk waste. This designation ensures that garments with a significant silk content are appropriately accounted for, separate from other textile blends.
Within the broader context of "Other garments, women's or girls'," this specific subheading differentiates itself from siblings that include coveralls, jumpsuits, washsuits, sunsuits, one-piece playsuits, track suits, jumpers, and vests, all of which may be made from different textile materials or fall under different specific garment types even if also made from silk or silk waste. The "Other" designation at this level signifies a residual category for women's and girls' garments not fitting into more specific descriptions at higher levels of detail, with the 70% silk content serving as the primary defining characteristic.
As this is a leaf node in the HTS classification structure, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the focus for classification under 6211.49.50.50 rests entirely on confirming that the garment is an upper body garment, intended for women or girls, not knitted or crocheted, made from textile materials falling into the "other" category (not cotton, synthetic, etc., as per preceding subheadings), not specifically covered by heading 6206, and critically, composed of 70 percent or more by weight of silk or silk waste. Examples would include sleeveless tank-style tops, casual shirts, or even more formal blouses that meet all these material and design criteria.
