How do you design clothes when you're visually impaired?

Is what you "see" conveyed to the customer?

Nikki Hind has made it her mission to change what fashion represents all over the world by creating a conversation through fabrics.

Having a stroke during her first pregnancy, Nikki lost majority of her eyesight and on this episode of ListenABLE discusses taking on a career that traditionally relies on visual aesthetic and a vision for minuet perfection. Her goal remains of achieving success as a "good designer" without the tokenistic narrative that can be easily placed on disability "not just a good blind designer".

Get an insight into the future of fashion through Nikki’s eyes and watch her break down the barriers of 'prestige' in an elite society by making fashion not just accessible to people with disability but accessible to every body.
