Kiwi717 Posted May 20, 2024 Hello all! I just received my Hanami Viewing outfit from Volks Japan and there is an exposed seam in the shoulder. Should I keep the outfit in plastic and contact Volks about this or am I just out of luck? Thanks in advanced! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oculae Posted May 21, 2024 Do you have a picture of it? they sewed some thread onto the shoulder to hook the jacket onto for that off-the-shoulder look, so depending on placement, it might not actually be a popped seam. It never hurts to contact Volks and ask though, especially if you can send them a photo of it. 1 Please ping me when replying! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's where the sleeve connects to the blouse so not where the jacket would hook on. I'm waiting for a response from them about it but I'm so disappointed because I was really looking forward to this outfit so hopefully they get back to me soon.

Kiwi717 Posted May 22, 2024 I'm feeling really silly. I think it is the spot for the jacket, I was just expecting the loop to be higher up. XD 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

XD Don’t worry, you’re not the only one! My husband was opening my Volks order with me and got mad at the popped seams which then alarmed me too until I read the instruction manual!

I just expected them on the shoulders and not, you know, right in the sleeve seam. Glad I'm not alone 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
