6.1.8.5 Light Exposure

Light fading occurs in some articles from exposure to sunlight, fluorescent light, or any light with a high ultraviolet content, and is characterized by nonuniformity. Protected areas of the faded article, such as under the collar or lapel and inside seams and hems will appear unfaded by contrast. Fading is not always uniform in the exposed areas, as light exposure may be more concentrated in some areas than others.
