Victorian maiden - now accepting official reserve orders!

We mentioned this on our Facebook and Twitter - we are now officially authorized by Victorian maiden to accept reserve orders for all upcoming products! So for you Victorian maiden fans out there, here are the details:


The first set of products we have up for reserve is the Rose Garden series, to be released in January and February of 2010. There are 13 products in this collection (only six are pictured above, but we are reserving all of them). This collection is a beautiful original floral print design available in three colors: Blue Moonlight, Classic Rose and Orange Leaf.

Please note the reserve period for all of the Rose Garden series is November 1-7 only. (Note the date change! Ending one day earlier!) After that, you will no longer be able to reserve them. If you want them later, you will need to take your chances that VM is not sold out, and you will need to pay full price.

We will also be accepting reservations for the re-release of the Standcollar Frill Blouse shortly.

We've set up a new Victorian Maiden Reservations collection page that explains the entire process and contains all of the products up for reserve.

You may ask yourself what the advantages to reserving are, even if you're a VM fan. The answer is twofold:

1. Instead of hoping we stock what you want or that your special order isn't sold out, you will now be able to get everything VM releases going forward, shortly after its release. The only exceptions are items VM keeps as exclusive for their Press Shop in Japan.

2. Reserve order pricing. There is often a significant difference between the reserve price and the regular price, with reserve pricing being much lower. All of the Rose Garden series are being offered at introductory prices that are 10-20% off their regular prices!

Please make sure to read the instructions on the collection page (linked above), and pay particular attention to the items under, well, "Attention" (that's why we called it that!).

And please don't hesitate to ask us any questions about the process, either here or by email.
