FashionABLE: Voices from the Spinal Cord Injury Community

Step into the world of inclusive fashion in this FashionABLE video, where individuals from the SCI BC community share their inspiring stories and insights on navigating style with accessibility in mind. Hosted by the renowned Dr. Andrei Krassioukov, this video invites you to discover the intersection of fashion and disability.
The filming was done at the Blusson Spinal Cord Center .Thanks to the generous support of the Craig H. Neilsen Foundation and WorkSafeBC, we explore the challenges and triumphs of finding fashionable and functional clothing options. From adaptive designs to personal style journeys, each voice adds depth to the conversation about accessibility in fashion.
Join us as we celebrate diversity, empowerment, and the transformative power of fashion. Let's redefine what it means to be FashionABLE, together.

Slightly surprised that asking about how individuals came to be in a wheelchair was relevant to topic. A personal question in my view that shouldn't be expected, especially for people in the know regarding SCI.

Thank you, you make a great point that the question was not relevant to the topic. We were a partner on this project and we will pass on your comment to the team. We do want to note that all the individuals in the video were informed of the questions ahead of time and did not have to answer any questions they were uncomfortable with. Regardless, your feedback is insightful and very much appreciated.
