Modest Clothes on the come back
Shade Clothing Plans to Expand Line of Hip, Modest Clothing, Color Options and Retail Locations
Shade Clothing looks to use the company's initial success as a springboard for expansion and new growth.
American Fork, UT, August 2, 2005--Shade Clothing, leading provider of hip, modest clothing for women of all ages, announced today that it will proceed with plans to expand the company product line, color options and retail locations, based on its strong showing in the first several months of operation.
Shade Clothing, the first company to take a hip approach to modest clothing, offers a line of "essential" undershirts that includes strap camisoles, cap sleeve tees and baby tees. The cotton/spandex blend, snugly fitted shirts to allow women and girls of all ages to wear fashionable, trendy clothing while still dressing comfortably and modestly. All styles sport three extra inches of length at the bottom and higher necklines, while still boasting a stylish cut. With Shade shirts, women can expand their wardrobe to include clothes that in the past may have been too sheer, too low cut, too short or too wide at the neck. Shade shirts are sold online, through home parties across the western states and in several retail locations in Utah.
"The response to our shirts has been overwhelmingly positive and we've been amazed to see our sales increase by 30 percent each month since we opened for business," said founder and CEO Chelsea Rippy. She hit upon the idea for Shade Clothing after growing frustrated with the limited options available for women who wanted to dress stylishly but still maintain their modesty. She spent one year perfecting the shirts' design before launching the company in September 2004.
"Since its launch Shade Clothing has really proven the concept of clothing that is both hip and modest," said Rippy. "We're ready to use this validation and the company's success to take Shade Clothing to the next level."
In that spirit, Shade Clothing
recently relocated to a large warehouse in American Fork, Utah, after outgrowing its previous location. Additionally, it has expanded into four new Utah retail outlets: Whimsy, Once Upon a Shelf, Frolics and Christensen's (three locations). Previously Shade Clothing's retail locations included Lolabella and three JMR stores. The company also intends to increase its cadre of home party sales representatives and extend the reach of this innovative sales method beyond the western United States.
"I can't tell you how many times I've heard women say, 'Shade shirts are the best thing that has happened to my wardrobe,'" said Rippy. "I view this as a mandate to take Shade Clothing a step further. The company is on track to complete many exciting projects over the next few months - new products, new colors and new deals with retail stores. We're looking forward to giving women more hip, modest clothing options in more places than ever before."
Shade Clothing will celebrate its first anniversary in September, coinciding with the launch of the company's fall colors. It recently introduced new summer colors, including "sunny yellow," "sky blue" and "grass green."
