Best Bespoke Clothing & Accessories Designer – Pennsylvania The fashion industry is fast paced, reflecting consumers’ changings tastes and evolving pop culture. It takes innovation, creativity, and dedication to remain ahead of the crowd, a challenge that Inclined Designs is masterfully navigating. As the designer is recognised for its excellence in the Style and Apparel Awards 2024, we catch up with Founder Karyn Pope below. Based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Inclined Designs is a woman-owned business dedicated to empowering clients to be their true, uncensored selves. The business makes unique clothing and accessories that range from funny and sarcastic to sassy and sweary, on its mission to help its customers speak their minds and look fabulous whilst doing so, empowering them to lead their best, uncensored lives. The market is saturated with businesses, but Inclined Designs has no issue distinguishing itself from the crowd. The business started on word of mouth and maintains a stellar reputation by keeping reasonable turnaround times, exceeding expectations more often than not. Inclined Designs pays meticulous attention to detail and strives to provide exceptional customer service at all times, offering returns and exchanges on items, unlike many of its peers. At the same time, the business understands that keeping a close eye on the market for changes to styles and technologies is also essential to sustainable success, though adapting its designs to suit fleeting fads is not a priority. “Trends and fast fashion move so quickly,” says Karyn. “We try to make tees that are going to stick around for at least a year or two. We typically don’t go for song lyrics or TikTok trends. Our printing process is always evolving, and we keep up with new technology for creating screen-printed tees.” Inclined Designs offers a variety of outstanding products available for purchase both in-person and online, including ready-to-purchase clothing, stickers, candles, and self-care products items. Alongside this, the store also produces in-house custom-designed clothing and accessories, targeted towards events and occasions such as bachelorette parties, school events, girls’ trips, and spirit wear, among others. Alongside empowering people around the world, Inclined Designs is highly focused on ensuring continual quality. The business is dedicated to providing top-tier customer service both online and in-store, which is evident in the number of five-star reviews left by happy, loyal clients. “I have been a fan of Inclined Designs since its Hey Baby! Boutique days…” says Lucy. “Karyn is the best! Her unique Pittsburgh-themed designs are great gifts and her line of ‘punny joke’-wares are hilarious. I always go to Inclined Designs whenever I need a cute gift or something fun for my daughter!” “I have worked with Inclined Designs, both as a private customer and for work, and have been beyond thrilled!” writes Kimberly. “Karyn is great to work with – creative, thoughtful, considerate, kind, and so responsive. The products have been top notch – beautifully made, always to specification, and the delivery is fun! I cannot recommend Inclined Designs highly enough.” Since its inception, Inclined Designs has successfully established a stellar reputation across the industry and has built a loyal base of clientele in the community. The business started as Hey Baby! Boutique, before rebranding in 2017 to become Inclined Designs. Karyn founded the business in 2008, though she has been sewing since 1996 when she began in high school. In addition to expertly running Inclined Designs, Karyn also works as a full-time Accountant at a local steel company and part-time as an Operations Manager for I Made It! Market. Despite this remarkably busy schedule, Karyn still successfully steers Inclined Designs towards excellence, cultivating a positive working environment driven by her unwavering love for the trade. “Our workforce is currently me and one part-time sales associate who helps with in-person events,” she tells us. “Our culture is very relaxed and family-oriented, often having my daughter hang out in our workspace. She has been growing her own passion for fashion and design now, too!” Inclined Designs has had a prosperous year, marked by a steadily growing clientele base and being featured in the Style and Apparel Awards 2024. We ask Karyn what is next for the business as it continues to build upon its significant successes with the expansion and enhancement of its services. “Our popup calendar is already filling up for the year,” she says. “We have a new indoor set-up featuring a custom tee-shirt bar and are making improvements to our mobile boutique in preparation for Spring. We are also working with a few local artists now, designing products to be launched mid-2025. Ultimately, 2025 looks very exciting for us!” Contact: Karyn Pope Company: Inclined Designs Web Address: https://shopinclined.com/ AIS-Dec24016
