The costume, hair and make-up budget must be astronomical so something may have to give

Whilst it’s probably sizeable I don’t think it’s necessarily as big as you think. Most of the basic outfits get reused either in another European version or in another series of strictly. For instance hrvy wore some of Joe Suggs basics. Stuff like traditional waltz tails will get reused every year (just with minor alterations)
DSI who make everything sell what they can’t or don’t want to reuse. There’s a lot of high street than gets customised (almost certain I’ve spotted primark men’s shirts in some group dances)
 
They could cut the bill if they gave everybody one pair of ballroom and one pair of Latin shoes, rather than constantly different ones which must be a nightmare to keep breaking in.

For the men, give them one set of tails, perhaps a Dokman suit, and a pair of Latin trousers, then you just change the Latin shirt.

Thanks @Guitarwarrior thats really good to know! I wrongly assumed they were worn once and kept by the guests and pros
 
In Week 1 of the 2016 series, I wouldn't have been surprised to have found out that most of the male clothes were from the BHS closing down sale.
Wardrobe can be hit or miss, some things they obviously invest into but there are sometimes stuff on the cheap and it doesn't always fit dancing.

No problem. There’s a small amount that doesn’t get or can’t be reused that gets sold in a charity sale at the end of the series but this usually the really unusable stuff so sometimes a dancer or celeb can get their outfits back. Dianne bought Joe some of his outfits and I think now they’ve moved he wants to frame them.

Genuinely don't know if I can handle watching Denise Welch's acting abilities (since when was she in Hollyoaks 😂) alongside our beloved Pritchard brothers, even for a laugh😰

Shes actually terrible!
Wasn't she in Corrie 103 years ago and not as terrible at acting as she apparently now is?!
