Why aren't more big brands designing clothes for people with disabilities?

Designing clothes for people with disabilities - such as wounded veterans - is attracting fashion school students, but far fewer mainstream brands

Caitlin Robbins always struggled to find clothes for her dad that didn't make him look and feel frumpy. As someone with ALS, or Lou Gehrig's disease - which impacts people's ability to walk, talk, and ultimately, to breathe - her dad wanted comfortable and tailored options. But most of the clothes she could find that didn't restrict his movement, such as pants with an elastic waist and pullover tops, only made him look awful.

"My father was always particular about fashion; he wanted to look nice and dignified," says Robbins, a fashion design student. "I wanted to design him outfits to be visually different, functional but still stylish."
