The Powerful Rise & Influence of In-House Fashion Brands For Retailers

In today’s dynamic retail landscape, in-house fashion brands are fast becoming a sales strategy as much as they’re a marketing technique to engage their customers and shape brand loyalty for ongoing success.

Largely driven by the rise of influencers and social media creators, whether you call it merch, or private white labels, these fashion brands (once considered less favourable), are now at the forefront of a global shift in consumer behaviour and as a result, have opened up new opportunities for retailers to engage their audience effectively.

Let’s explore how in-house fashion brands are revolutionising retail and how the team here at Visionise, a local Australian fashion manufacturing company, can help you launch your own!

The Rise & Power of In-House Fashion Brands

In-house brands offer numerous advantages that make them compelling to both retailers and consumers alike.

What are the benefits of having an in-house fashion brand? 

Enhanced Quality & Control

The manufacturing game has changed dramatically over the years and as the world continues to open up, both online and offline, retailers now have complete control (and access) over the development, sourcing, warehousing, merchandising, and marketing of their products. This accessibility ensures that in-house brands can match or exceed the quality of national brands, dispelling the old notion that private labels are of lower quality.

Competitive Pricing

Higher profit margins enable retailers to price their in-house brands more competitively. This attracts price-sensitive consumers without compromising on quality, making private labels a preferred choice during both economic highs and lows. 

Exclusivity & Differetiation

Higher profit margins enable retailers to price their in-house brands more competitively. This attracts price-sensitive consumers without compromising on quality, making private labels a preferred choice during both economic highs and lows. 

Product Market Fit

Constantly in touch with their customers on the shop floor, retailers are sometimes better able to understand their customer’s pain points and interests than their competitors. Not to mention, they can take a data-led approach, taking the insights and learnings from their existing brands and product sell-through rates, to feed into their own brand strategy.

Influencers & Social Media Driving The Trend

The influence of social media and its creators has significantly impacted the popularity of in-house fashion brands. Over the years we’ve seen numerous creators, not to mention ‘brands’ or ‘communities’, leverage their followings to drive consumer engagement and sales through authentic and relatable content.

From Kylie Cosmetics and GymShark to Sporty & Rich and WeWoreWhat, these brands all originated from a single community, with their creators leveraging their engagement to create a product-market fit.

Not to mention local Australian retailers like Girls With Gems, who are using data-driven insights and analytics from their own foot traffic and customer behaviours to create their in-house brand Sneaky Link.
