Top Brands Should Take Adaptive Fashion More Seriously

Adaptive fashion refers to clothing and apparel for individuals with physical or sensory disabilities who may have difficulty dressing or feel severe discomfort wearing standard clothing. 

The article, "Why Top Brands Should Rethink Adaptive Fashion And Take It Seriously", talks about the lack of clothing brands that create adaptive clothes and the problems this causes for shoppers with disabilities.  These issues include the lack of options to meet individuals' personal styles and the lack of competition that drives up the price of the clothing and makes it harder to source.
