The specification discloses a method and system for color coding the sizes of garments to be displayed and sold in a retail clothing or department store which has a plurality of clothing lines for a plurality of consumer groups, wherein each consumer group includes individual consumers of similar physiology. The system and method provide a uniform color sizing code to assist individual consumers in locating items of clothing in different lines of clothing appropriate to their personal physiology. The individual items of clothing to be offered for sale are first classified into a plurality of clothing lines, and each of the clothing lines is segregated into a plurality of graded sizes. Some of the common size designations such as S(small), M(medium), L(large) or XL(extra-large) appear in all of said lines, although they may represent different sized clothing in the different lines. Large scale consumer demographics are then used to identify graded sizes in different clothing lines that would be selected by a consumer selecting clothing appropriate for their personal physiology, and a common color code is assigned to each graded size designation to form a matched set of graded sizes common to a specific consumer physiology. Thus, when the individual items of clothing in the various lines are displayed on hangers in different areas of the store, they have a color code that is specific to the specific consumer physiology. This color code may be displayed by a color coded size cap mounted on the hanger which displays the article of clothing, wherein the color of said size cap conforms to the assigned common color code, so that a consumer may move from one area within the store that displays one line of clothing to another area within the store displaying other lines of clothing and find articles of clothing appropriate to their personal physiology identified by the same common color code throughout the store.
