Dressability recently had a two day long visit from fashion student Mylie, who’s at the Wells Blue School. Mylie is focusing her most recent project on fashion for people with disabilities, her interest in the area was sparked after her Gran badly broke her leg and due to complication from operations permanently walks assisted by crutches.
During Mylie’s visit we worked with her to adapt a garment that would be suitable for someone with Kyphosis (also known as roundback or hunchback), by adding in an additional panel in the back neck. Everyone really enjoyed Mylie’s visit and it was positive being able to support a student with their studies.
