Mochipan Pre-Order Newsletter #2
Welcome to the second first Pre-Order Updates blog post!
A heartfelt thank you to everyone who shared their fantastic feedback about our bi-weekly update system! We truly appreciate your engagement and are committed to keeping you informed and connected as we move forward together.
As we dive into this week’s updates, we want to share that our partnered manufacturers are currently experiencing higher-than-usual production volumes as we approach the end of the year. This has led us to make some tough decisions regarding product prioritization and numerous delays.
As we navigate the exciting challenge of expanding our product range while maintaining tight timelines for new releases, we want you to know that we’re learning and evolving every step of the way. We're working each day to provide you with not only a greater variety of products but also the highest quality service and offerings.
Your understanding and patience during this time mean the world to us.
Now, let’s get into the latest updates!
Pre-Orders
As a reminder, all standard pre-orders are released with product photos, sizing information, and material information already available. If you still need that information, head over to the product page!
The Starry Night Collection has seen resounding success since its launch on October 15th! Thank you all so much for your support and engagement. This entire collection is on-schedule to ship in early-to-mid December!
Some updates about the Starry Night Collection:
Starry Night Pajama Top: We've discovered a small error in our listing for the Starry Night Pajama Top. The correct fabric composition is 94% Bamboo Fiber and 6% Spandex, not 100% Bamboo as previously stated. We understand that some of our lovely customers may have spandex allergies, so we wanted to bring this to your attention right away.
Stardust Strapped Dress: There's been a change in the fabric for our Stardust Strapped Dress as well. Instead of the listed Recycled Polyester Blend, it will be made of Rayon. We believe you'll love the soft, flowing feel of this fabric!
Upcoming Starry Night Dresses: Two new Starry Night Dresses which can be found on our social media will be released for pre-order just as this Pre-Order period ends! Their final samples are being produced at this time, and pictures will be made available at the same time as pre-order release.
There will be a brief period where both pre-orders will overlap, between November 15th and November 20th. We recommend ordering in this window if you'd like to bundle purchases from both collections in a single order!
Please note that a separate email notice will be sent out regarding any changes made to pre-order products within the next week to ensure everyone has been notified.
