In #FashionForAll, #AllMeansAll : Disability

One day I received an email from a cane user who told me she was in tears (happily) after seeing a model glamorously posing amidst the other models on my site, while using her cane.

There is so much “othering” happening in our society today – and a group that absolutely feels the brunt of it are disabled folks….

We continue to separate, to “other” people, to hold certain bodies higher…
