TED: How adaptive clothing empowers people with disabilities | Mindy Scheier

The speaker shares her passion for fashion and personal story of her son Oliver, who has muscular dystrophy. She describes the challenges he faced with clothing and how she innovated adaptive clothing to boost his confidence. This led to the founding of Runway of Dreams, an organization aimed at integrating adaptive clothing into mainstream fashion. Through research and collaboration, the fashion industry was educated on the importance of adaptive clothing, leading to the launch of the first mainstream adaptive collection. The speaker concludes with a call to action for the industry to continue supporting this cause.
