Pre-Sample Pre-Orders (PSPOs)

 

The Peacock Moth and Mothman Cropped Jackets

 

We have reviewed the first Mothman Cropped Jacket sample, and have determined changes will be needed for the printing technique as well as the bottom zigzag color, which is currently leaning a bit green. We will also be changing the buttons to red for the next sample. 

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 Peacock Moth Cropped Jacket Concept Art

 

The Peacock Moth Cropped Jacket has now been split into its own section to account for the difference in development timeline. The completion of this project's sample is top priority now that our production partner has returned from holiday.

While a late May delivery is still possible for this project, the print factory handling this jacket's printing has historically caused delays for us. To set expectations for that possibility, we have lengthened the Estimated Shipping Date range, while continuing to communicate our timeline goals to our production partners.

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 is currently in progress, awaiting embroidery. We are nearly certain this will be the last sample needed to reach approval status for this project, but to give our production partner and project manager breathing room for the sample to be completed, shipped, and reviewed, we have shifted this piece's ESD range to late May.

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 will continue in the next few days. Like with its sister design, we will be lengthening the ESD range to better reflect this project's timeline depending on the next sample review.

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.

This project and its Love-Me-Not variant will be given top priority by this production partner. As they do not handle other current pre-order projects, this will not interfere with the development schedule.

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.

Left: Previous Sample, Right: Newest Sample

The newest Plague Doctor Dress sample has been reviewed, and is much closer to approval now! The twill fabric chosen for the overdress gives the piece the structure lacking in the previous sample and the new faux leather fabric feels much higher quality. 

For the next sample, we will be lightening the color of certain embroidery details to provide better contrast, adding stitching details to the faux leather adornments for a more stylish look, and changing the construction of the Plague Doctor Mask.

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 we deliver a final product that will meet expectations, the new Estimated Shipping Date range spans a longer time frame that the other PSPOs. Please feel free to contact us if ever this timeline does not work for you.
