Description

The global market for clothing geared towards physically disabled people is expected to grow from $278.9 billion in 2017 to $400 billion by 2026. However, a huge gap could be spotted with the lack of development of adaptive clothing. It is often tagged as apparel for the disabled only, and hence never be considered by able consumers. The separated market leads to a lack of trendy and functional clothing developed by the fashion industry but the disabled community itself.

width: is established to connect the market gap between both abled and disabled consumers through building clothing with product-based research. With the purpose to have one function, solving needs or wants for the abled and disabled, the focus of this project is “one-handed”.

width: one-handed is a waterproof jacket that could entirely be worn and operated by a single arm. It is also a compactible design linked and packable to a crossbody bag.
