Disability and Fashion

The highest impairment are those that affect mobility , lifting and carrying. We all have diverse expectations of our clothes and definitely want clothes that fit well. As designers, we need to put those with limited mobility, a large cohort,  that are often forgotten, more consideration. Everyone deserves to be happy, beautiful, confident, comfortable and more! Being physically challenged doesn’t mean that people should be made to wear less attractive clothing. In fact, they even need more trendy clothing to boost their confidence.

ADAPTABLE FASHION

Living life as a disabled individual makes it difficult to do certain activities or effectively interact with the world around you. In life, we face a lot of obstacles in every step we take and for the physically disabled, they face even a lot more challenges.

Since life is not all round perfect but filled with ups and downs, we have to find ways of making life a little easier, and most especially for the physically disabled.

When faced with conditions that life throws at you, you will have no choice but to adapt. Trying to adapt may not be easy at first but overtime it will become easy.

This leads us to specially designed clothing’s and underwear’s for those with special needs. While trying to adapt to a certain condition, you need to have the right type of clothing that will easily fit on your body without any physical stress.
