The Blue Monarch Cardigan production is indeed finishing early! While we have not yet received 100% of the shipments, we have received enough to begin fulfilling orders starting oldest first. We will be moving the ESD up to early March, but don't be surprised if you receive tracking soon!

Pre-Sample Pre-Orders (PSPOs)

 

The Final Approved Sample of the Woodland Shorts (Brown)

Production on the Woodland Shorts (Brown) is proceeding on schedule, and we don't anticipate needing to change the late March ESD. We encourage you to double check the size charts and reach out to us early (support@mochipan.com) if you need to update your size or shipping address. 

As we've stated previously, we know you've been waiting a long time on this project. If you have other items ready to ship on an order containing the Woodland Shorts, Please let us know, and we will ship them out at no additional cost.

The Final Approved Sample of the Woodland Shorts (Green)

The Woodland Shorts (Green) are finally ready to be approved! We have chosen a beautifully muted green that compliments the denim shorts aesthetic, as shown above.

Pictures have been uploaded to the listing, and the Woodland Shorts (Green) has officially moved from the PSPO phase to the Pre-Order phase, and will be closing on February 22nd, 2026. Production will begin shortly after, once the factory returns from Chinese New Year break. If you hold this Pre-Order, please take this opportunity to double check your sizing and reach out to us if you need to update your size or shipping address.

As with the the Brown variant, please reach out to us if you have other items waiting to ship in an order with the Woodland Shorts (Green)

The Final Approved Sample of the Honey Bee Summer Gown

Production on the Honey Bee Summer Gown is proceeding nicely, and our late March estimated shipping date is still looking feasible! Please take a moment to review the size charts and contact us at support@mochipan.com as soon as possible if you need to make any updates to your size or shipping address.

We know this project has been a long time coming, and we sincerely appreciate your patience. If your Gown order includes other items that are ready to ship, just let us know and we’ll ship those out at no additional cost.

The Final Approved Sample of the Death's Head Cropped Moth Jacket

The Death’s Head Moth Cropped Jacket finished printing, but our embroidery factory partner closed much earlier than anticipated for Chinese New Year. These pieces cannot move forward until embroidery is complete, so production will pick back up after the CNY break. This does necessitate a schedule change, putting the new ESD at late April. Please reach out to us if this timeline does not work for you, and we will be happy to assist.

As with the Woodland Shorts and Honey Bee Summer Gown, if your order includes any of the Moth Cropped Jackets and other items that are ready to ship, let us know! We’ll send the available items separately at no extra charge.

The Peacock Moth and Mothman Cropped Jackets

The Mothman Cropped Jacket sample has seen tremendous progress! It should be finished and sent to us before the CNY break, and we are waiting with bated breath to share the sample photos with y'all. The Peacock Moth variant will see its sample complete after the break in late February. 

As with the previous projects, we welcome customers to reach out and let us know if the rest of your order has been waiting on this PSPO, and we would be happy to ship your items in advance of these jackets at no additional cost.

The Spanish Moon Moth Dress’ most recent sample is very promising, and we believe one more sample will get us across the finish line. We have submitted the requested changes to aim for a knee length fit, and are also changing the spots on the bottom section and neckline to a lighter shade to more closely match the sketch.

The digital pattern for the new length has been completed, and a sample will be constructed after the CNY break.

If your order is only waiting on the Moth Dresses, please reach out! We’re happy to ship the rest of your order now at no extra cost as a thank-you for your understanding.

The Mothman Dress' current sample is disappointing to say the least. The fabric colors are too light, the bust shape needs work, and the scalloped neckline was lost in translation, among other things.

We have since changed the fabric to that of the Honey Bee Summer Gown (85% Rayon, 15% Linen), as we've already tested this fabric and know it to be high quality, a good texture and drape, and ideal for printed patterns.

Sampling has begun, and will finish after the upcoming CNY break.

If your order is only waiting on the Moth Dresses, please reach out! We’re happy to ship the rest of your order now at no extra cost as a thank-you for your understanding.

After numerous samples of the Love-Me Dress project, we've come to the conclusion that while these samples have been beautiful, there are certain fit and design issues that this factory is not equipped to fully resolve.

This design-- and our customers deserve an outfit that does not compromise on comfort nor style. Therefore we've made the decision to move this project to a new factory partner that we believe has the technical chops to tackle this project. As they handle our Mushroom Dress, they've shown an understanding of the aesthetics and quality we strive for.

To give them adequate time to develop this complex design, we will be moving the ESD to late August. We understand this is a significant leap forward on the schedule, and want our customers to know their satisfaction is our upmost priority. If you are not willing to wait, please reach out to us at support@mochipan.com, and we will process a full refund for you, no questions asked.

Embroidery has concluded on the next Plague Doctor Dress sample, and sewing continues on this project. Construction may not finish before the CNY break begins, but we will keep you updated.

The Plague Doctor Dress, and the other designs that utilize a Plague Doctor Mask, are an incredibly ambitious style, working with details that are all new to us. As such, to ensure that this style is not rushed, that a photoshoot can be factored into the schedule, and that mass production is given the realistic time needed, the current estimated shipping date rests at mid-June. Please feel free to contact us if ever this timeline does not work for you.

Early-Sample of the Aurora Borealis Suit Vest and Jacket

The Aurora Borealis Jacket's latest sample has been approved for the base design, and the Vest and Tie are also very likely to be approved once reviewing is completed. We will work on taking pictures soon to share with our customers as we know you are just as excited as we are to see the progress! 

As the Icy variant is close to approval, but the Purple variant needs a bit more work, we will be splitting this project into two sections, see the Purple variant section below. To give the development and manufacturing process a bit more breathing room in anticipation of CNY, we have altered the ESD slightly to late April.

As stated before, we have been developing a button down shirt and pants to complement the Vest, Jacket and Tie set. Those will be available for purchase later on. 

Thank you for your continued interest in this stunning formal set. If you have any questions, or need to make any changes to your order, please reach out to us at support@mochipan.com.

Strike off of the Aurora Borealis Purple Vest Print Variant

The Aurora Borealis Jacket's latest sample has been approved for the base design, and the Vest and Tie are also very likely to be approved once reviewing is completed. 

Above you can see the newest strike offs for the purple variant, with changes made to enhance the visibility of the purple color differences. Considering the time needed to ensure this variant is able to be approved, we have split it off into its own section and set an ESD one month out from its Icy sister. It is to be determined whether the completed garments will be finished and sent before CNY break, but we will keep you up to date on this front. 

As stated before, we have been developing a button down shirt and pants to complement the Vest, Jacket and Tie set. Those will be available for purchase later on.
