Mochipan Pre-Order Newsletter #26

Hi Mochifam, 

Happy September!

Summer has nearly come to an end, which means it's time to break out your coziest couture and prepare for fall! 

The Goth Swimsuit Set is beginning production very soon, with the product entering it's official Pre-Order Phase within the next week. Sizing Charts and Production Photos will become available soon, so keep your eyes on your inbox or the product listing to make sure you don't miss it. 

The Artist Jackets are on track to ship out within the next two week, with no more delays or unexpected extensions! We're very excited to get those lovely pieces sent out in time for the cooler seasons. 

Regarding Delays on Pre-Order Collections

At this time, the following Pre-Order Collections are each facing timeline extensions and uncertainties around the reason as to why: 
  • Butter Collection
  • Lipedema Collection
Typically we'd have clear timelines for you or more information on these projects to provide more context for these delays-- but our manufacturing partners have not sent any new information in over a week, leaving us as frustrated as many of you.

We're committed to sharing any progress, and hope to be able to clarify the status of timelines for the products above for our next update-- or sooner, wherever possible.

We know how much these pieces mean to our community, and we sincerely appreciate your patience, trust, and understanding during this unexpectedly difficult two-week period.

If you have urgent questions or need support, you can always contact us at support@mochipan.com.

Pre-Sample Pre-Orders (PSPOs)

 

The Woodland Shorts continue their sampling process! Here's the latest news:

We've incorporated more customer feedback, with our design team focusing on fixing the leg shape of the piece. This same point has been a challenge for various iterations now, with the particular challenge being making the product fit and feel the same across body types and size grades. 

The next sample will be finished within 10 days, after which it will need to be reviewed once again. Additional adjustments may be necessary, so please be advised. 

Given these latest updates, a shipping time of October is unlikely, and we will need to move the timeline again to accommodate those changes. 

Thank you all so much for your patience, and please contact us at support@mochipan.com if you need any help in adjusting or cancelling your order in light of this latest timeline.

The latest product sample for the Shark Bite Set - not final

The Shark Bite Set's newest sample is now available for review! We want to clarify that this is still a working piece, and that more changes are planned down the line to bring it even closer to the original design's look!

The next sample of this piece is shipping currently being shipped to us for final review! Unfortunately, our manufacturing partners have quoted a production time of 6-8 weeks for completion once the order enters bulk production on account of its complicated pattern work. 

To account for time between tasks, we will move this shipping timeline to November, and hope to enter production very soon!

The Honey Bee Summer Gown is seeing another timeline extension due to the reasons below: 

  • Fabric issues: The fabric chosen for this time around is a linen-blend, which aligns with our goal of making this from a natural fiber. Unfortunately, this particular fabric is too scratchy for a swishy sundress, and we're switching it out for a softer alternative. 

  • Bee-Wing Bow: We are changing a design decision in order to bring the design more in line with the original concept art. The back-ties/bow was originally intended with a bee-wing motif in mind, but ended up not being sampled that way initially due to production constraints. As we believe this detail is now very much possible, and the product is looking at a new sample anyway, we will take extra time and resources to correcting this detail for the final piece. 

Thank you all so much for your patience while we continue working on this long-standing pre-order, and please let us know if the new timeline does not work for you. 

We're committed to ensuring you're 100% comfortable with your pre-order, so contact us at support@mochipan.com if you need to make any adjustments to your order details.

(Pre-Sample Pre-Order) Goth Swimsuit (SWIMSUIT ONLY) - Mochipan

The Goth Swimsuit + Swim Skirt Set's production is set to begin in approximately one week! 

When bulk production begins for this piece, we'll be running it's Standard Pre-Order phase alongside its production period, for approximately two weeks.

Once that pre-order phase ends, the piece will not longer be purchaseable, so be on the lookout for the pre-order announcement!

Size charts and product photos will be going out at the same time, so if you're wondering how the final sample came out, all will be revealed within approximately one week. 

Thank you all for your patience and support.

The Latest Sample of the Death's Head Cropped Moth Jacket - Buttons Attached

The Cropped Moth Jackets have seen a new sample, which is getting closer to a workable sample each day. Though this is still not the final piece, we now have a secure base from which we can work out additional details of fit and feel. 

In the latest news, this piece is coming along quite well, but we want to change the fabric out for a new option, after which remaining styles can be actively developed. 

To account for these changes, as well as in line with our suspicions from past pre-order updates, this project will need to be pushed up to December, 2025, with the goal of realistic timelines in mind. We apologize sincerely for this big jump, and thank you very much for your understanding.

Thank you all so much for your patience-- we're always here at support@mochipan.com if you require assistance!

After much deliberation among our design team, the Moth Dresses have been slated for a complete rework. 

It's been deemed after quite some time working on the project that there are inherent structural issues surrounding the working samples of these Moth Dresses, making progress slow and unproductive. As such, this piece will see another major timeline extension, to January 2026.

Given the unfortunate circumstances, customers are invited to contact us if their order is unable to ship due to the Moth Dress, and we will have all other items in the order shipped ahead at no added cost. 

We apologize sincerely for the inconvenience, and are here to help resolve outstanding Moth Dress orders as quickly and promptly as we can. Thank you so much for your understanding, and please contact us at support@mochipan.com for assistance.

The Love Me - Love Me Not Dress & Corset Belt Set is continuing its sampling phase, with the next Love-Me Sample to be complete within 2-3 weeks following a printing test.

The Love-Me Dress Set's latest sample, pictured above, is now en route and will be reviewed within the next 2-3 weeks to see if production can begin. 

As the Love-Me-Not Dress continues to trail behind, we may need to release these two pieces asynchronously, with the Love-Me-Not Dress following by 6-8 weeks. 

Thank you all for your patience in waiting for this Pre-Sample Pre-Order!

The Glorp Cat Cropped Jacket and Skirt is still in pre-production, with a sample not yet started. 

As per the product listing, this is still an extremely early-phase product. It's going to be challenging and time-consuming throughout the sampling and production process and will take a minimum of five months from now to finish.

As the product listing says: Please only purchase this one if you're willing to wait a long time; We are in the business of breaking molds-- not breaking hearts! 

Please note that we expect this product to be ready-to-ship for November-December, but cannot make guarantees at this stage!

The Plague Doctor Dress has seen some raving excitement, and we'd intially hopied to get this piece finished for October!

However, as time has gone on, this design is proving understandably very complex. As such, timelines have been shifted accordingly.

Please note that we expect this product to be ready-to-ship for December, but cannot make guarantees at this stage!

The Aurora Borealis Masc Set has seen quite a lot of interest, and we look forward to working on this dashing masc set. With an estimated production period of seven plus months, you'll want to make sure you're okay to wait until November at the very earliest.

We're hoping to have this set shipped out by Winter 2025-2026, and appreciate your patience and support.

The Apothecary Dress Set is seeing early constructions, but nothing we're able to show quite yet!

As it's behind four other new designs in line, it has a wait time of 8 months minimum, and should arrive by Spring of 2026. Pre-Sample Pre-Orders are generally going to take the larger part of a year from launch to produce, so please keep that in mind when placing an order!
