Dear Mr. Greenberg:

In your letter dated June 15, 2006, you requested a tariff classification ruling.

Item 61498, Disney Princess Ariel Dress, is a textile costume set that consists of a dress, and a veil, with the dress imparting the essential character. Although the dress has two styling features and four well-made embellishments, it has a flimsy neck, waist and seams, flimsy thin elastics on the arms and back, a flimsy hook and loop tab closure, flimsy edges at the arms, hem and closure and a flimsy embellishment.

Item 61552, Disney Fairies Prilla Dress, costume set that consists of a dress and wings, with the dress imparting the essential character. Although the dress has four styling features, well-made edges at the hem, belt and bow and four well-made embellishments, it has a flimsy neck, waist and seams, flimsy thin elastics on the back, a flimsy hook and loop tab closure, and flimsy edges at the arms, hem, closure and belt.
