The price of a white label women’s top or dress is quoted per style, and it moves with the fabric, the quantity, the branding and the packing you choose. Knowing the white label women’s tops price factors helps you shape an order that fits your budget before you ask for a quote.
We do not publish a price list, because two orders for the same style can differ in almost every detail. Instead, here is what changes the price per piece, and what you can adjust if a quotation is higher than you planned.
The garment: style, fabric, quantity and colour
Four choices about the garment itself set most of the price.
The style itself
Each style in our white label women’s tops, shirts and dresses range takes a different amount of fabric and work.
- A dress uses more fabric than a blouse, and a long dress uses more than a short one.
- A shirt has a collar, cuffs, a button stand and buttons, so it takes more steps than a simple blouse.
- A tunic sits between a blouse and a dress in fabric use.
- A skirt needs a waistband and closure, which adds work.
Changes to an existing style, such as a longer sleeve or a different neckline, can also change the price. We confirm whether a change fits white label or needs a private label quote.
Fabric
Fabric is a large part of the price. The choice between cotton, rayon, viscose and linen blend matters, and so does the quality within each fabric.
- Linen blend often costs more than plain cotton.
- Printed fabric can differ from solid colours.
- A heavier or finer quality of the same fabric changes the price too.
Our post on choosing fabric for women’s tops and dresses explains how each fabric looks and feels, which helps you decide where it is worth spending.
Quantity per style
The minimum is 50 pieces per style. Above that, larger quantities usually bring the price per piece down, because setting up a style for production takes the same effort whether the run is small or large. Sizes can be mixed within a style without changing this.
If you are close to a larger quantity, ask us to quote both. It shows you whether ordering more of one style makes sense.
Colours and prints within a style
Splitting a style across several colours or prints means smaller fabric quantities per colour. That can affect the price, and it depends on fabric availability. The colour split per style is confirmed at quotation.
Branding, packing and shipping
The next three factors are about how the garment is finished and sent.
Branding
Every branding element adds to the price, and some add more than others:
| Branding element | What changes its price |
|---|---|
| Neck label | Woven or printed, size, number of colours |
| Wash-care label | Usually a small part of the price |
| Hang tag | Card weight, print, finish, string or fastener |
| Embroidery | Stitch count, size and number of thread colours |
| Screen print | Number of colours, size and position |
A woven neck label plus a hang tag is the most common setup. Embroidery on a chest, cuff or hem adds a visible mark, but it is an extra step for every piece.
Packing
A folded garment in a plain polybag is the simplest pack. Adding a size sticker, barcode sticker, tissue, a branded bag or a box each adds to the price. If you sell online, tell us the packing format you need so the quotation reflects it.
Shipping and documents
Shipping is separate from the garment price. The method, terms and documents depend on where the goods are going, and they are confirmed in the quotation. We take enquiries from buyers worldwide.
Things that do not change the price as much as buyers expect
Some choices feel big but usually make little difference to the price per piece:
- Mixing sizes within a style. A spread from XS to 3XL is quoted the same way as an order in fewer sizes, though larger sizes use a little more fabric.
- Choosing one solid colour over another in the same fabric, as long as the colour is in the available options.
- Adding a wash-care label, which most markets expect anyway.
It is still worth asking. If you are unsure whether a detail affects the quote, list it in your enquiry and we will tell you.
How to bring a quotation down
If the first quote is above your budget, try these in order:
- Cut the number of colours per style.
- Choose a printed neck label instead of woven, or drop embroidery for the first run.
- Simplify packing to a polybag with a size sticker.
- Choose cotton over linen blend where the look allows.
- Increase the quantity on your strongest style and drop a weaker one.
Each change is a trade-off between cost and how the product looks, so make them one at a time.
What to send for an accurate quote
Send the styles, fabric, colours or prints, your size split, quantity per style, branding and packing, and the country the stock is going to. The more complete the enquiry, the closer the quotation will be to your final order.
