Is disability hidden in fashion?
Model and disability campaigner Kelly Knox looks at the industry for Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio 5 live.
Kelly spoke to fashion designer Catherine Teatum - one half of the British design duo Teatum Jones - who has used Kelly in one of her shows at London Fashion Week.
She also met Caroline Baxter, a fashion journalist and stylist with more than 25 years’ experience on glossy magazines. Caroline talked about the reasons why the industry might not be that keen to use models with disabilities.
And finally Kelly met fashion blogger Clara Holmes. She has been a full time wheelchair user for 10 years, and explained what she'd like to see from magazines, shops and online.
