In this episode of Textural Anthologies, I sit down with someone making a profound impact in the world of fashion—Victoria Jenkins, a disability designer, advocate, and founder of Unhidden Clothing. Besides being a former student of mine, Victoria is someone I am incredibly proud of.
Victoria's journey began with her own experiences with gastrointestinal disabilities, which fueled her passion for advocacy. As a garment technologist in the fashion industry, she saw firsthand the challenges faced by her fellow hospital patients—people who struggled to find clothing that was both comfortable and stylish. This realization led her to launch Unhidden Clothing in 2017, a brand dedicated to creating adaptive fashion that empowers individuals with disabilities.
Join us as we delve into the world of adaptive fashion, the growing awareness of ableism, and the powerful spending potential of those with disabilities. We also explore how Unhidden Clothing is helping people with disabilities not only find comfort but also enjoy fashion like never before.

Our guest today is the second generation of a family run Italian brand which started in the mid 70’s.
With him, we discover how the ‘made in Italy’ has changed in these past 40 + years and how he took the company in a new direction and most recently, how he introduced a new business model.
We talk about how the Messori brand started in an Italian town, then expanded across Europe and now into Africa, where they are becoming a reference point in men’s tailoring.
And above all, how Covid_19 brought about changes, and how tailoring is adapting to reflect the new normal.
I am happy to welcome today's guest, the curious tailor, Gianmarco Messori.
Enjoy the Episode!
