'Fashion is about dreaming and making other people dream.'
Happy birthday #DonatellaVersace x
Here's to more dreaming!
Craig Crawford, founder of Differently Enabled on how the market / medical authority takes the view:
‘It’s always the customers fault’ they don’t adopt an absence of style.
“Allow people to be who they want to be”.

Fascinating…
Dr Jo Gooding points out how there was no fashion in eyewear in the auk until the 1980’s.
Complacency around medical appliance isn’t an excuse with robust validity.

Hannah Tantush, founder of #intotumfashion explains how she approached adaptive fashion from the outset of her studies…
“Design for disability still works for everyone”
“We watch how people dress and hack clothes practically”
#disabledfashion #inclusivefashion
A brilliant introduction from Dr Elizabeth Kealy-Morris
“In 2023 global spending by differently abled persons totalled 8 trillion globally but ignored by the market”
“Clothing touches our body, let everyone be embodied in style”

You don't have to be a perfectionist to make a difference.
Do something small, it matters that you do something at all !!
