About Kintsugi Clothing
Kintsugi is an inclusive clothing brand, named after the Japanese art form of mending broken pottery with gold (rendering it more unique and more valuable; not less).
Since February 2019, Kintsugi has been creating useful, accessible clothing, designed with disabled women in mind. Fastenings are made easier, utility is added and consideration is given to how each garment will work in the seated position (i.e. in a wheelchair).
Kintsugi's clothing looks no different aesthetically to any other piece of on-trend apparel, so can be worn by anybody, whether they are disabled or not. The brand stocks its clothing in sizes 8 - 20 and is planning to expand this range. Diversity and inclusion are integral to what Kintsugi does, and challenging perceptions around disability and size is a key driver.
The company was founded by Emma McClelland, a former features writer and editor.
