Grace Jun leads the way in teaching designers about disability and fashion and collaborating with people with disabilities and other experts on disability and participation ... [She] sees the importance of customization - all people with disabilities are not the same and many people, both disabled and not (or not yet), have the need for custom alterations or fabrication of garments.

In this breakthrough book, Grace Jun investigates the complex intersection of fashion and disability, illuminating the sweeping range of challenges that confront creators and consumers alike. With elegance and clarity, she offers a brilliant précis of the issues at stake, combining historical analysis, in-depth case studies, and assessments of real-world design to provide guidance and inspiration for future solutions. Essential reading, this book speaks forcefully to the ethical, moral, land social imperatives of ensuring that fashion is equitable for all, while making the business case for no longer overlooking a global marketplace of over 1.8 billion people.
