Quantity

The biggest lever. Setup is shared across more pieces, so each piece costs less as the run grows.

Save: Go deeper in fewer colours rather than wider in many.

Fabric

Weight, composition and special finishes all move the fabric cost.

Save: Ask for two fabric options at different levels and compare.

Decoration

Each technique, colour and position adds work. Stitch count and stone count matter.

Save: Put your biggest spend on the one hit people see first.

Trims & labels

Custom zips, pullers and woven labels add up across a run.

Save: Brand the trims people touch; keep the rest standard.

Washes & finishing

Garment washes and distressing are an extra process on every piece.

Save: Test one washed colourway before washing the whole drop.

Packaging

Printed boxes, tissue and tags are optional extras.

Save: Start with branded polybags and a hang tag.
