Event Boutique Fashion

Did anyone else notice a bunch of fashion in the 'new' tab of the event boutique? I was told by friends and faction that they have at random moments, a few days ago, seen the fashion. I'm talking about the witch set, the pumpkin heads, peach blossom set, beyside set,nyan set and others that don't normally appear in the event shop. Ever since I've been checking multiple times a day hoping that it would also appear for me but it hasn't. Was that an event that wasn't announced or some glitch where fashion from the normal boutique ends up in the event? Even today my friend was able to buy this fashion and it still hasn't appeared for me :/ Note though the fashion does say event boutique item only and it's not tradable like all the stuff from the event shop.
In the case this is a glitch with the boutique I really hope it gets fixed. It's a bit unfair that certain players were able to attain this fashion basically for free ( with all the log-in event gold and all) while others weren't even aware of this because it simple did not appear in their event boutique.

@thenamesdomino , @sylenthunder I would appreciate it if either of you two could give an explanation about this. Thanks!

    I was able to get some fashion from the event boutique that wasn't previously implemented. I checked on other alt accounts, but the same fashion wasn't available.
    I took a screenshot of some of it at least.

    Also noticed that it was available for 2 hours, then it disappeared and was back to the regular ones.

    It's a bit glitchy yeah.
    Normally I'm able to get it to appear by staying on the world map, relogging and swapping between the tabs a couple times

    Yes there is new fashion in the event boutique. I'd say try to open the event boutique fashion window. If the new fashion won't appear, close it and open it again. Or switch tabs. Maybe this will trigger it? But there is new fashion. I wish you good luck!

    Have been having issues with it as well, it takes me around 10 minutes of continuously opening the boutique then cycling through the tabs, closing and repeating before the new stuff appears. It's quite frustrating, at this time I'm actually unsure if the fash is still there or if it was limited time only.

    I saw this problem on one toon of mine today. I logged it in, went to event boutique fashion and at first not all the fashion was there. But after a while the ones that were missing, appeared. So maybe staying online for sometime could help? I don't know. I'm trying to guess here.

    Well after a while of dealing with it and trying to figure how to make the fash appear, I got it to work.
    Everyone's replies were very helpful, thank you! <3
    Also the way it worked for me was that I logged in and out of the toon switching trough the event boutique tabs each time before I logged off and after 5 to 7 times of doing this I got the fash to appear. I also noticed that it worked only on certain accounts and on some it didn't even if I repeated the same process for over 12 times. So what I noticed was as soon as I got it to work on one character the fash stayed there for all the others on the same account, and as long as you don't close the client for the account where you got it to work you can log in other accounts and right of the bat they will all show the fashion. Hope this helps others as well.

    @cococya
    I hoped that domino would have an answer as to why it's so glitchy and if it's a permanent thing or will it be removed in the near future, but I suppose he hasn't seen this yet or gotten round to checking the problem with it.
