For example, if one style is\nproduced in two colourways, would that require 200 units per colourway (400\nunits total), or 200 units across both colourways combined?\n\nThis is important for us to understand as several of our styles are planned\nin multiple colourways, and we want to ensure we are planning our order\ncorrectly from the outset.\n\nWe look forward to your clarification and to finding a way forward together.\n\nWarm regards,\n\n*Karieshma Hira*\nFounder | Pink Cheetah\n\nFor Every Body.
