Where can I buy your work?

You can buy my artwork, merch, and any downloadable goods, such as zines, and sketchbooks, here at The Official Store of Gigi Murakami. I also attend numerous anime conventions throughout the year, so check my Shop Talk blog or sign up for my email newsletter to stay up to date on when and where I'll be.

I have one stockist, Newtown HQ in Astoria, Queens, so you can now buy my art and merch at a brick-and-mortar.

An automated e-mail containing your tracking number will be sent to the e-mail address used when placing your order. This e-mail is separate from your order confirmation e-mail and will be sent out once your order has been shipped.

As I mentioned, I make every effort to get your order to you as quickly as possible. Once shipped, most domestic orders will arrive in 7- business days for standard delivery. For international orders, please allow for more shipping time. Depending on the number of orders I receive in a day, it may take longer to get your order shipped out due to packaging time. Please note that during the holidays orders may take longer than usual. Please rest assured that your order will be arriving soon. However, please contact me on the contact page or at support@gigimurakami.store with the subject line "Tracking Inquiry" if you feel your package is taking longer than expected to arrive.

APPAREL//

Are your garments sized for men or women?

My garments are unisex, so they run larger as a result.

All sizes currently offered will be listed in my store. Unfortunately, UNLESS THERE IS A LARGE ENOUGH DEMAND, I am unable to offer additional sizes at this time.

 

 

GENERAL INFO//

Washing Instructions

To preserve colors and design, I recommend most of my apparel be washed cold, inside out, with like colors, and with minimal to no bleaching. Please line-dry or tumble-dry on a low setting. Do not iron directly over designs.

Will my Gigi Murakami apparel shrink in the wash?

Most of my apparel is 100% cotton, so please keep this in mind when washing and drying. To prevent shrinking as much as possible, I recommend washing them in cold water and line dry or in a low-heat/delicate setting.

Do you offer gift cards/gift certificates for your store?

I do not offer gift cards at this time.

I found a coupon for your store on (website). How can I apply it to my order?

I announce all active coupons/discount codes on my social media, newsletter, and store announcements. When a coupon/discount is active, there will be a section to input the code when placing an order.

I will only honor discounts/coupons listed directly from my platforms during the dates indicated.
