Production that has a limited edition is produced in low quantities. A limited edition is a collectible product that is advertised to be limited to a relatively small number of copies. A limited edition is sometimes referenced as a special edition, or collectors edition.
Designers can restrict the number of garments, shoes or fashion accessories that are production.
Sometimes, but not always the items are numbered to indicate how many are produced. For example, if the designer create only one thousand of an item they may be numbered to indicate:
- 1 of 1,000
- 2 of 1,000
- 3 of 1,000
When luxury fashion brands or designers sell limited editioned product for the first time, they can potentially sell them in number order if they are being sold online of in fashion boutiques. If there is a lot of demand for the edition, they can potentially raise the price of the remaining unsold garments or footwear.
Bespoke fashion can be considered limited edition but not necessarily numbered. Technically a custom made garment would be a one of a kind.
