✨✨✨This is an incredibly surreal moment for me.✨✨✨

I genuinely can't believe that this has happened. I am published in an academic textbook as an expert in my field.

Maybe I should say, they are for everyone but not for every situation.

Saying that you have to be in a fashion show today sounds so glamorous, but let's be real. Today started with a four miler for the dogs, and folding the laundry. And then, *poof* it's fashion time.

😭😭😭 I didn't want to make it too floaty because it could get caught in the wheels of a wheelchair, so I accidentally made a straight jacket.

Oh I love that! That's probably why it has such a beautifully organic, cohesive feel.

These are so beautiful! Did you have a specific source of inspiration or theme in mind when you started or did it grow up out of what you created?

Oh I'm so glad I'll be able to enjoy it from so far away!

That sounds beautiful, I wish I wasn't so far away. Will you post them after the show?

Oh wow, that's so exciting! Does your show have a theme?

Truth. Being able bodied is a temporary condition.

In addition to disability focused adaptive clothing, I also make gender affirming clothing! There are no gendered words on my website for any garments. Simply give me your measurements, and I make the garment to your specific needs.

Most folks are familiar with the idea that adaptive clothing can benefit people with limb differences or wheelchair users, but adaptive clothing can actually benefit a huge variety of disabilities, in my case. IBS.

If you have irritable bowel syndrome AND you are willing to eat gravel by the handful, I'm thrilled to inform you that Grape Nuts have 27% of your daily fiber needs!

Adjustability is a key feature of my adaptive designs.

Tony Stark had the opportunity to be one of the greatest adaptive fashion designers of all time, but no, he let his buddy run around in cut off jorts. That's not real friendship.
