Students to Design for Special Olympics Great Britain

Kingston College BTEC National Diploma students have been specially commissioned by Special Olympics Great Britain — the country’s largest provider of sports training and competition for the learning disabled – to design bespoke outfits for its Special Olympics Surrey group. The unique collaborative project, Beyond the Label will bring together the world of fashion and learning disability.

The student’s assignment is to create a collection of fashion forward garments, tailor made to fit the members of Special Olympics Surrey’s ten-pin bowling team, reflecting each athlete’s individual character and personality. In doing so, they will be giving real choice and, for the first time, an opportunity for the athletes to express themselves through fashion. Historically, people with a learning disability have found it difficult to find clothes that fit or that are age and shape appropriate often drawing unwelcome attention or magnifying their “difference.” This project will address those issues and highlight the need for a greater understanding within the fashion industry of the frustrations and barriers faced by those in this minority group.
