RTW

Store-bought clothing initialism

RTW is an abbreviation with several meanings depending on context.

In fashion, it stands for ready-to-wear—clothing manufactured in standard sizes rather than custom-made: The designer showed both couture and RTW collections.

In travel, RTW means round-the-world, describing airline tickets or itineraries that circle the globe.

In workplace contexts, especially insurance and labor, it means return-to-work: an RTW program for injured employees.
