Sculpt Sixtytwo

Sculpt Sixtytwo

Sculpt Sixtytwo is a curated editorial fashion platform built for tall women, those 6'0 and above, founded by Crystal Langhorne, a 6'2" former professional basketball player who spent years navigating a clothing market that was never designed for her frame. The site is not a store; it is a hand-vetted guide that points shoppers to pieces from across the web that genuinely work for taller proportions, each one fit-tested and annotated with editorial notes on inseam, rise, and sleeve length.

We built the platform on WordPress with a fully custom theme, no page builders and no off-the-shelf storefront. Products live in a custom post type with their own taxonomies for category and curation type (Designed Tall versus Tall Friendly), powered by Advanced Custom Fields. A fast AJAX-driven filter and sort experience lets visitors browse the catalog by category, curation type, sale status, and price without page reloads, with results-per-page controls and shareable filtered URLs.

The result is a refined, magazine-style shopping experience that feels intentional from the first scroll: a full-bleed hero, an editorial voice throughout, and a catalog of over 200 curated finds, each linking out to the retailer where it can be purchased.

The Challenge

Tall women face a frustrating, time-consuming search across dozens of retailers, most of which were not built with their proportions in mind. The client needed a platform that could present a trustworthy, fit-tested edit rather than a generic product feed, while solving a hard technical problem behind the scenes: keeping a large catalog of externally-hosted products accurate. Affiliate links go out of stock, change price, and disappear with no warning, and several of the key retailers (Revolve, ASOS, and others) sit behind aggressive Akamai anti-bot protection that blocks automated checks outright.

Our Approach

We built a custom daily availability monitor that pings every product's source URL, flags items that go out of stock or fail a check, and detects price changes by parsing structured product data straight from the retailer pages. To get past the anti-bot walls that were silently hiding good products, we implemented a browser-fingerprint bypass using curl-impersonate, with a graceful fallback to standard requests, so the monitor reads the same way a real Chrome browser does. The product catalog itself is sourced from the client's Notion database and imported through a custom, re-runnable mapping script that handles categories, curation types, pricing, and image sideloading. We also engineered the link model to keep a direct retailer URL for monitoring separate from the commissionable affiliate link, so stock checks stay reliable as the client adds affiliate links over time. The build was rounded out with a Flodesk newsletter integration, Rank Math SEO, GA4, and a thorough mobile QA pass.

Results

Sculpt Sixtytwo launched on schedule with a catalog of 225 fit-tested products across categories, an automated monitoring system that keeps the catalog accurate without manual checking, and a clean, editorial design that gives a long-underserved audience a shopping experience built specifically for them. The client can manage her own products, hero imagery, and categories going forward, and the architecture leaves room to connect her Notion catalog directly through its API for hands-off syncing as the site grows.
