Mochipan Pre-Order Newsletter #15

Hi Mochifam,

Happy April! Spring is in full swing and we're happy to bring you another Pre-Order Update this lovely Sunday.

This time around, we've had two projects move significantly up the timeline-- namely the Magpie Crow Butterfly Cardigan and Stardust Strapped Dress restocks. Both of these products have finished between 2-3 weeks earlier than initially estimated, and will be shipped out by April 20th, 2025.

A couple of other projects have seen larger extension, and they're both rather unfortunate pieces to see delays: The Bee Swimsuit Cover-Up and Color-Corrected OG Moth Cardigan. More info in their individual update listings.

Outside of these, most other projects remain on-track with some minor timeline changes littered throughout this latest update. 

Thank you all so much for your patience and understanding, and let's get into these updates!

Pre-Orders


The Starry Night Collection now only has two pieces that may have yet to ship. They are:

  • Stardust Strapped Dress
  • Starry Night Dress

Both of these pieces have seen some good progress on estimated shipping times as we hurry to get these pieces and their affected orders fulfilled as soon as we can. As such, the Stardust Strapped Dress will be shipping the week after next, on April 20th and the Starry Night Dress restock will be ready by early-mid May. 

Thanks so much for your patience, and we look forward to getting these sent your way as soon as we can.

    The Artist Jacket's first batch has been shipped in full, and their roaring popularity has made us open up a second pre-order.

    Moving forward, all mentions of the Dark-Mode Artist Jacket in this update newsletter will be referring to the second pre-order. 

    If you ordered a first-batch Artist Jacket, black or white, and haven't received it yet, contact us and let us know!

    Remember! If your order contains other pending pre-order items, it's likely waiting on those before it can ship.

    In Moth Cardigan news: 

    Color Corrected OG Moth Cardigan Delay

    We've recently learned from our manufacturer that they have not yet begun production on the Color-Corrected OG Moth Cardigan, despite initial confirmation that production had completed on this piece as of last week.

    Given this unfortunate development, the Color-Corrected OG Moth Cardigan, which itself was a product of other substantial delays, will not be able to ship until mid-May to June

    We will be sending out a notice of this specific delay in the next few weeks to help keep customers informed. Please let us know if you need to make any changes to your order details if affected by this delay. 

    Magpie Crow Butterfly Cardigan (Back-Order & Restock)

    The Magpie Crow Butterfly is nearly with us, and all orders will be fulfilled ahead of schedule by April 20th, 2025.

    (Pre-Sample Pre-Order) Woodland Shorts - Mochipan

    It's no secret that the Woodland Shorts have seen some extensive delays. That being said, the project remains mostly on track for a slightly extended shipping date of June 20th.

    The latest sample came out with some challenges-- namely, sizing around the waist, fabric choice, leaf embroidery quality and placement. Things are looking much better than the last sample, and a new one will by coming in within the next 2-3 weeks for inspection.

    Thank you to all for your continued patience and support on this long-awaited prjoect.

    The Bee Swimsuit still awaits the Cover-Up and Wing-Bow prior to full-set shipment. Additionally, it has been brought to our attention that the swimsuits sent out did not have black bows at the top of the strap as originally designed.

    As such, we've had our entire shipment returned to the manufacturers so that this detail will be added on as per our original design. In the meantime, we've paused fulfillment on the Bee Swimsuit (Swimsuit Only), and encourage customers who've been negatively affected by this design discrepancy to reach out so that we can assist you further.

    We've gotten notice that the cover-up is nearly finished-- however, our manufacturer seems to be evading our questions about the wing-bow, which finalizes the entire set. As we've sent back our shipment for correction, we'll need to assess a new estimated shipping date and will set it at May 15th to be safe. We apologize for this rather messy rollout, and look forward to sending this product out in full as soon as we can.

    The
    Shark Bite Jacket & Tech Pants are FINally making headway! 

    The first prototype has come in, and it's looking like it'll need some work. We'll be showing these samples on social media, so stay tuned. 

    Given the status of the first sample being a touch further behind our expectations, fhe estimated shipping date will be moved up to early summer for now to temper expectations. 

    Thank you to everyone for your continued patience and supprot!

      The Apothecary Dress Set has grown viral, and rapidly so. As such, this piece will be put up as our final Pre-Sample Pre-Order launch for the first half of 2025.
