Reviews

“We got to know Movingmood through a sustainable fashion company. They helped us enhance our best sellers, the dresses, making them more inclusive, with minimal impact on costs and patterns.”

Susana Herrador, Founder and Designer at Touchemoa, Barcelona.

“Movingmood helped me expand my knowledge about materials and the placement of certain adaptive elements. With their expertise and guidance, I’ve been able to design an inclusive collection that addresses the needs of individuals, with the hope that more fashion brands will do the same.”

Claire Louise Thorn, Founder and Designer at Claire Louise Thorn. London, UK

“A conversation with Rut made me aware that the path was integrating certain aspects into the overall production, rather than recommending the creation of an exclusive collection that would separate them from the rest of society. Taking Rut’s proposed course has helped me discover new ideas, organize my thoughts, and put them into practice.”

Núria Membrives, CEO Segueix-me el fil. Barcelona.

“Working with Rut was an absolute pleasure. I highly recommend this training if you want to gain a different perspective from individuals with real-life experiences in accessibility.”

Kat Paylor-Bent, CEO Seated Sewing, UK.
