Last updated: April 2026 dataDresses of knitted or crocheted textile fabrics for women and girls are a high-volume apparel import category spanning casual, occasion, and performance end-uses, with fiber content — cotton, synthetic, or blended — driving both classification nuance and duty rate. The knit construction distinguishes these dresses from woven counterparts and is the primary classification criterion, making fabric certification from the mill an essential import document. Fast-fashion sourcing cycles and seasonal demand patterns make lead-time and origin flexibility key supply-chain considerations for US importers in this segment.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
CBP generally classifies a garment as a dress if it is a one-piece garment designed to cover the upper body and extend over the lower body to at least mid-thigh. A tunic or top that does not extend sufficiently to cover the lower body would be classified as a blouse or shirt. Length alone is not always determinative — the garment's design, marketing, and intended use are also considered.
Yes. Within the broader SITC category for women's and girls' knit dresses, the applicable HTS 10-digit subheading varies by fiber content — cotton, man-made fibers, wool, and other fibers each have distinct subheadings with potentially different duty rates. Importers should confirm the predominant fiber by weight and select the correct subheading accordingly, ideally with guidance from a licensed customs broker.
