]]>A pre-order is an order placed for an item that hasn't been released or is not currently in stock. They're shipped to the customer once available. Pre-orders allow customers to order products before they are available. All our pre-order items are 100% made to order and will take 4-6 weeks to ship after the last day of the pre-order period.
The reason why we operate with pre-orders is many. The 3 main reason is because it helps us expand our product offerings without investing heavily in inventory. Meaning we can offer more sizes and colors.
The second main reason is to gauge customer interest in a particular product. Instead of ordering a large quantity of products that eventually become dead stock, we can order the exact amount.
The last reason is availability. As a small business we have limited funds to invest in new stock. We have experienced time after time that we sell out as soon as we restock because we're only able to order a limited amount of products at time. With pre-orders this is no longer an issue.

At Murlong Cres, we believe that fashion should be sustainable and long-lasting. That's why we focus on creating non-seasonal items that you can wear year after year, season after season. We're part of a movement called "seasonless fashion," which is all about slowing down the fashion cycle and providing core pieces that transcend traditional seasonal collections.
As the name suggests, seasonless fashion doesn't follow the typical seasonal trends or schedules. Instead, these collections are designed to have a longer lifespan on the shop floor and can be sold and worn throughout the year. By producing non-seasonal items, we're not only reducing waste and contributing to a more sustainable fashion industry, but we're also giving you the chance to invest in quality pieces that you'll love for years to come.
Our focus on seasonless fashion means that you can shop our collection with confidence, knowing that each item is designed to last. We carefully select materials and prioritize quality craftsmanship to ensure that every piece stands the test of time. We also take care to create classic styles that won't go out of fashion, so you can wear them for years to come.
In today's fast-paced world, it's refreshing to see a movement like seasonless fashion taking hold. At Murlong Cres, we're proud to be part of this movement and to offer pieces that are not only beautiful but also sustainable and long-lasting. Join us in making a difference by shopping our seasonless collection today.
]]>At Murlong Cres, we take pride in offering our customers high-quality garments that are ethically produced. We believe in transparency, and that's why we want to introduce you to our factory in Zhejiang, China.
Our factory is a small, family-owned business with just 100 employees. We chose this factory because of its high ethical standards and safe, fulfilling work environment for its employees. The factory has obtained the 'Standard Social Report’ certificate, which is an internationally recognized certification that ensures that a high ethical working standard is met.
We care about the people who make our clothes and the impact our production process has on the environment. That's why we chose to work with a factory that provides fair wages and benefits to its workers. Our employees receive a wage 15-20% higher than the local average.
We also chose to produce in China because we have found that it offers more advanced technology options that can produce the highly intricate design features we want to incorporate into our collections. Hand-drawn embroideries, appliqués, custom lace engineering –– all of these design elements are possible thanks to the expertise of our Chinese factory.
Another reason why we produce in China is because of their expertise when it comes to silk. We love silk and we want to ensure that our customers receive the best quality possible. By producing in China, we can ensure that our silk garments are made to the highest standard.
We believe that fashion and ethics go hand in hand. That's why we're committed to sustainable and ethical production practices. We hope that by introducing you to our factory, you can see our dedication to transparency and ethical fashion.
In addition to our factory in China, we are proud to say that we manufacture some of our garments in-house at our headquarters in Drammen, Norway. This allows us to have complete control over the production process and ensure that every garment meets our high standards. We believe that producing locally is important, not only because it supports our local economy, but also because it allows us to have a more sustainable approach to production. By manufacturing in-house, we are able to minimize waste and reduce our carbon footprint. We have made sure to include information about where each garment was made in the product descriptions, so you can make an informed decision about your purchase and have complete transparency about our production process.
