2025 Murakami Collection

[Snowpips Snowest]

Any idea if there will be restock online in Australia? I am hoping to get all in bb and have it delivered to my brother's house.

I was informed by my CA in the Philippines of the possible restock in March, too.

All CAs are aware of the restock. They will want you to order through them. Mine has asked me to let her know what I want. I didn’t ask her about online restocks.

No, March 1 for the first tier is the latest I’ve heard.

Either way I’m pretty sure my butt will be traveling to the store again on the day of release considering it worked last time and I’m not part of any tiers.

Hi folks, just out of curiosity. Do you plan to buy inserts for your bags? I hesitate only because my PA and the speedy 20 are already small. I'm afraid the inserts will take up even more space. Please advice.

I had ordered a felt insert from Etsy and it was such a tight fit and so bulky I cast it aside and ended up ordering this from Amazon. Happy with it so far:

High-grade material: our handbag organizer is made of high-grade silk, silky feel, lightweight, soft and firm, satin bag organizer can easily support the bag and does not leave traces; precious bag is the need for a matching partner, out of communication more highlight the consistent internal...

For those asking about lengthening the strap, I ordered these and they extended the strap just enough to be comfortable when I wear the bag crossbody:

Has anyone connected with Chris on Rodeo about a restock for MC in March/May? I asked him about a week ago, but wondering if anyone has heard something more recently.

i'm not aware of any online restocks coming but can confirm both my CA's that have been very credible so far, mentioned a restock in March, apparently they are waiting to fill more outstanding orders first

Thanks for sharing. Did they say approximately when in March orders might re-open through them?

Did Chris say anything when you asked him?? I haven’t reached out to him or his counterpart about it yet

Wow that glazing is horrible! Unfortunately, my key pouch had the same stitching issues. I took it back and told the CA it should be marked defective. The store manager came over and told me that the stitching was perfectly normal and brought over a monogram one to show me it looked the same. I was so disappointed that the canvas had been obviously over stretched.

Here’s a picture of my monogram key pouch I purchased several years ago. There is visible stitching/threading which I feel is expected and normal. I don’t think the stitching on the multicolor key pouch is normal though. Curious to see what LV will say about the stitching now!

The stitching on my new Key Pouch S doesn't look like that...but it's a bigger piece, so maybe nothing needed to be pulled so tightly when flipping it inside-out.

Current monogram key pouches that are made in USA appear to all have poor stitching.

I tried ordering one from the US site with good stitching three times. All failures. Returning all. Just a heads up for anyone else that placed online orders for the key pouch in monogram recently or plans to.

This is from our own forum with some stitching anomalies that can happen on the (small) original key pouch.

Love it all @MarryMeLV_Now and a BIG congrats on all your FAB pieces!!! I was going to reply to your earlier message, you tagged me in a few days ago, about you getting the black MC TP like mine. I quickly saw it the other day and wanted to say congrats but I was travelling and had dodgy airport wifi lol! I hope I got this message right, as when I go back to my messages I can't find yours or a few others anymore, and these were defo only a few days ago.

Plus I also added another black MC to my collection too! The passport cover and it's SO damn cute in the mini MC black monongram print! If anyone is interested in getting one, here's my quick unboxing below for you to reference, hope it may help some of you...



I took it on a recent trip and just love it and it fits perfect inside by matching TP!

Thank you so much my dear friend for your lovely comment! It’s still a long wait until I hopefully get my MC TP 26, but it’s surely worth it!
I’m meanwhile enjoying how you style your gorgeous MC TP 26 and all of the other Murakami pieces - you truly have a great collection and an amazing style many congrats on scoring the black passport cover too - it’s been such an illusive MC piece here in Germany, I’ve never seen it restock after it sold out within the first minutes after going live happy that you’ve caught this unicorn!

Has this drop been brutally frustrating? Yes!

Has it been a gift to meet amazing people -- tPFers and new LV CAs too -- as part of the process of trying to hunt down these incredibly limited pieces? Yes!

Here is my newly acquired Murakami panda bag charm on my World Tour Speedy 30 next to the cutie Murakami superflat Speedy 20 that @umichmm carries. We had a blast of an afternoon coffee catch-up yesterday. 🥰

Wishing all of you who have suffered through these 860 pages of this thread some surprise life gifts as part of your Murakami journey this year. One drop down, two to go -- there's still plenty of time to meet some incredible souls or discover sweet new things as part of this process.

I didn’t ask him specifically about restock when I texted him 2 days ago about the panda Imagination perfume bottle showing up as in stock at the Rodeo store. I did ask his colleague though when I went in to pick it up and that CA made it sound like he hasn’t heard of any restocks. Said theyre waiting for the Cherryblossom drop now. He did show me what was orderable atm and it was mainly shoes and both the white and black MC bracelets. Love the giant panda display!

I finally received my 3 items I ordered on 1/3 from a personal shopper I used in Paris. The shopper was waiting on the back ordered key pouch to arrive so she could ship everything I ordered together. When I received my items I noticed 2 of my items appear to have quality issues…I’m not sure if I am just being picky or if this is normal? Either way I sent pictures to LV for repair and I’m waiting to hear back. Never using a personal shopper again and sticking to ordering with a CA in the US where I can inspect my own items. I ordered the Rosalie, Key Pouch and the Emily Notebook cover. Thankfully the notebook cover looks fine although I feel like the monogram on the canvas is a bit blurry and not crisp. The glazing on the Rosalie is very bad in my opinion (there’s even a big random chunk of red glazing on the white canvas in the corner) and the key pouch appears to be stitched poorly as well! Honestly…if I could just return everything and get a refund I would. I’m a bit over this collection at this point and don’t want anything anymore. I went this long without the items and I was perfectly fine. If anything this whole multicolor collection has cost me nothing but problems, money and wasted time lol I’m not sure if I want to participate in part 2 and 3 of Murakami at this point.

I bought a multicolor key pouch on fashionphile (marked new condition) for $1,150, and it had pretty bad sewing as well. My holes weren’t as sloppy as yours, but the side of mine actually had one random, huge hole where the person who sewed it must’ve had a slip of hand. Quality is hit or miss with LV. I did end up getting a multicolor key pouch from LV themselves, and that one is perfect.

no they did not unfortunately and i limit my interaction with CA's to not annoy them

 

[Bumbles]

Yes, you are right. As far as I can tell, here in Australia we are still scheduled for a restock in March and May. I texted my CA and she has said Multicolour will be available. Just send your wish list to your own CA. I’m convinced you’ll get that nano speedy.

Thanks @Snowpips Snowest Do you know when orders open for March restock? Will it be the same process as last time?
