More Than Just Clothes

Every day in the UK, autistic people are excluded from society because of the clothes they’re expected to wear as part of a uniform policy. But for many autistic people, clothes help regulate their senses, provide routine and comfort. In fact, 70% of autistic people say their lives would improve if people understood why their clothes matter. This project, a partnership between clothing care brand Vanish and British charity Ambitious About Autism gave a platform to autistic girls to tell their stories, in their own words.
