S2 Ep 4: The Disabled Debrief Podcast: Why We Need Adaptive Fashion With Unhidden's Victoria Jenkins The Disabled Debrief With Conscious Being Magazine

    • Careers

Sometimes deemed to be a 'frivolous subject', here at Conscious Being Magazine we want to change the conversation on fashion and why it matters. Disability is so often not accommodated for when it comes to consumerism; the Purple Pound quantifies this further, too. For this episode, we talked to Victoria Jenkins of Unhidden Clothing. An award winning business, Unhidden Clothing is adaptive and is designed to fit as many disabled individuals as possible. 
In this episode we talk about why adaptive fashion is important, as well as why businesses should now be paying more attention to disabled consumers. Victoria also talks through her design process, her motivations and how she designs particular garments, as well as further plans for the future.
