NOTE For special kinds of clothing e.g. protective clothing, the appropriate size should be indicated by combining several body size ranges. Table 1a — Standard heights for women Dimensions in centimetres Heights for women in cm with intervals of 4 cm ← 156 160 164 168 172 176 180 184 188 →

As women may not have the exact heights detailed in Table 1a, a height range of ± 1/2 interval is recommended for use on the pictogram in accordance with EN 13402-1. In order to maintain maximum flexibility, it is left up to a country and/or company to choose 4 cm or 8 cm intervals, of which 8 cm is recommended for general use and intervals of 4 cm for trousers. EXAMPLE If a country/company selects 168 cm with an 8 cm interval, the range on the pictogram would be 164 cm to 172 cm. If a country selects 168 cm with a 4 cm interval, the range on the pictogram would be 166 cm to 170 cm.
4.1.2 Flexible link between bust, waist and hip measurements for women The standard sizing system allows each country/company to freely combine these three measurements as needed, although most countries will wish to use two lower or two higher waists or hips for a given bust according to the three lines of Table 2. Different combinations are shown in the examples in Table 3a, 3b and 3c.
