These ultra-stylish accessories are made with wheelchair-users in mind:
The fashion industry is notorious for being exclusionary in just about every way. One community in particular has been, and very much still is, extremely underserved: people with disabilities. And that's exactly what designer Lucy Jones and her new line of functional accessories FFORA, are hoping to change.
While Jones' schooling may have focused on apparel design, she attributes the brand to always having a passion for creating accessories."I was frequently told I have a natural flare for accessories, which I often rejected, until I guess I could no longer avoid my calling!" she says. From there, she assembled her team, which includes her design partner Joonas Kyöstilä, who serves as the brand's head of industrial design.
The disability community has historically had to troubleshoot scenarios/designs to make them work for their needs, simply because many designs aren't often designed with disability in mind.
