The information in the data record can be accessed, such as through a social network interface, to associate the information with the person wearing the article of clothing.

A thermally fusible sheetlike structure, especially usable as fusible interlining in the textile industry, has a carrier ply made from a textile material to which has been applied a two-ply adhesive composition structure comprising an underlayer directly adjoining the sheetlike structure and an overlayer disposed upon the underlayer, wherein the underlayer contains a first hotmelt adhesive and the overlayer a second hotmelt adhesive, wherein the first hotmelt adhesive has a melting point of >140 C. and a melt flow index (MFI) value of >50 g/10 minutes (190 C./2.16 kg) and the second hotmelt adhesive a melting point of <145 C. and an MFI value of <50 (190 C./2.16 kg).
