• November 2017

Imate li omiljenu majicu ili traperice zbog kojih se osjećate samopouzdano -- zbog kojih se osjećate dobro? To je stoga što odjeća koju nosite, može utjecati na vaše raspoloženje, vaše zdravlje i vaše samopouzdanje, tvrdi modna dizajnerica Mindy Scheier. Inspirirana svojim sinom, rođenim s prirođenim, degenerativnim poremećajem zbog kojeg ima teškoća u odijevanju te s odjećom koje ima gumbe i zatvarače, Scheier je odlučila dizajnirati odjeću koju mogu nositi svi, pa tako i osobe s teškoćama. Otkrijmo zajedno kako je promijenila povijest mode stvorivši prvu komercijalnu liniju prilagođene odjeće.

About TED Institute

Every year, TED works with a group of select companies and foundations to identify internal ideators, inventors, connectors, and creators. Drawing on the same rigorous regimen that has prepared speakers for the TED main stage, TED Institute works closely with each partner, overseeing curation and providing intensive one-on-one talk development to sharpen and fine tune ideas. The culmination is an event produced, recorded, and hosted by TED, generating a growing library of valuable TED Talks that can spur innovation and transform organizations.
