I was put on the waiting list for some items in Munich. I was there on launch day and they barely got any stock yet. I wanted the Amazona 16 and they are supposed to get two but they don't know when. Same with the rest of the items they were supposed to get. They didn't even have anything on display because they got so little. So maybe Loewe is also lagging behind in sending the items because the SA said, that London is their priority in Europe. Which sucks, because GB is not in the EU, so the rest of Europe needs to pay duties and taxes if you order at Selfridges...
Would make sense just on the idea that Selfridges has that big exhibit. LA’s SAs all kind of muttered that they didn’t get all their stuff either, there were missing RTW pieces you’d have thought perfect to be hanging out on Rodeo.
 
My magical sky cardholder shipped from Loewe on its own - I still have a t-shirt and feather strap remaining in the same order.
Photos when things arrive please!!!
I do feel a little guilty that we are all emitting so much carbon getting these pieces piecemeal but the satisfaction of least one item in hand is so...

Still showing pending for all things from Selfridges, an order shipped from Loewe but pending all others...

Heen charm, tiger charm and heen cardholder all shipped individually from online presale order!

Edit: correction, looks like they slipped a charm into my nugget's DHL number (they generated the waybill for the nugget and held it for two days waiting for other things to put into the box?); other two three items in a different shipment. everything in my presale order is now at the shipment stage

We heard from our SA at Saks that not all items had arrived in time for 2/2 (and that some items hadnt finished production in time...) ... So wouldn't be surprised about a trickle of continued goods in next couple days

I wonder when they'll start the inventory reconciliation and address all cancellations...

Last year they ran the SA campaign for about a month. if saks online was taking preorders for calcifer black puzzle with delivery 3/2, I wonder if they’re expecting a lot of inventory bc the page was live two days. Though that’s only one item (an item that requires more work than the other puzzles, too)
 
By far, my favorite thing about yesterday was being hyped up (read: peer pressure / gentle encouragement) by fellow Ghibli x Loewe fans, followed by seeing SA and Totoro items "in the wild"

One of our SAs wore the gorgeous Kaonishi leather jacket from the last collab, someone else wore the intarsia RTW sweaters, soot sprites, etc. Really can't wait for more photos here and grams of folks using their stuff out and about!!!

After the pandemic and the SA items being a predominantly online transaction, that was a fun bonus! Lots of susuwatari sweaters, as someone mentioned upthread - a shopper for the movie night had the boro puzzle, another had a totoro hammock.

Wasn't something I was interested in but did the Howl T Tote even have an online page? The comes up as "in stock" (but "not available") as an item at the very end of the in stocks so I think it might be showing up soon if someone was looking for it
 
Just got an email that my Calcifer coin cardholder just shipped from Loewe, yay!

Still waiting for the shipping info from Mytheresa, where I ordered the yellow Calcifer strap.

I also ordered the Calcifer strap from Selfridges (for delivery to a friend of mine in London), before knowing about Mytheresa getting the item also. It's arriving today already, but will be going back.

Sadly at the NYC flagship they didn’t have one. Maybe it was because of the size of the store.

Also curious, did they give out notebooks or stickers or themed tissue paper in the NYC location? I went with a friend around noon launch day to pick up the heen cardholder last minute, since I forgot to reserve it in spain, and I didn’t get anything :( was too nervous to ask since the SAs just seemed so tired, but curious if anyone got anything from the NYC store.
