Size Grading

Definition

The systematic scaling of garment measurements across a size range, defined by a grading table that specifies the incremental change at each measurement point between consecutive sizes. For example, a 5 cm chest increment from M to L, but only a 2 cm sleeve length increment. Size grading rules vary by market, brand, and target customer — there is no universal standard.
