Clothes can make us feel good, boost our confidence and improve our mood.
Everyone deserves to have a wardrobe filled with clothes that reflect their personal style that they love. We know that living with Multiple Sclerosis, it can sometimes be difficult to find those clothes you love to wear and are easy to put on and take off. For that reason, The Able Label has created a range of stylish clothing with adaptations to make them more accessible.
In our Multiple Sclerosis Shop By Need Guide you'll find dressing tips to help you grow in dressing confidence and an exciting new affiliate.
Our Clothing & Dressing Tips
From easier clothes maintenance to a dressing routine that works for you, here are a few tips to start with:
Take your time. Fatigue and tiredness can be a significant challenge for those with multiple sclerosis, so it's important to pace yourself. Rushing and harming yourself will only increase stress and make dressing more difficult. Allow yourself plenty of time to get ready without feeling pressured.
Make maintaining your clothes as simple as possible. Opt for easy-care fabrics that don't require much ironing and can be managed with minimal effort. Consider clothing that are machine washable and quick to dry.
Keep a comfortable temperature. Regulating your own body temperature can be challenging for many living with MS. Wear layers to adjust to fluctuating body temperatures. Choose breathable fabrics that layer well. Our clothing with adaptive fastenings or those that can easily slip on and off when layering will make the dressing process easier too.
Create a new dressing routine. Muscle weakness and balance issues are common with MS, so sitting down while dressing can offer more stability. Get yourself a chair with firm support and arms to assist you. Avoid sitting on the edge of the bed, as this might lead to loss of balance.
Our adaptive clothing styles make dressing easier and promote independence. These small adjustments can significantly reduce the effort required and help maintain your energy throughout the day

"Beautifully made clothes in the softest feeling material and all well made. I am wearing the Claudia Jersey top today. The Lilly knitted cape is so pretty."
"I received my coat this morning and am delighted with it. It’s a perfect fit and the Velcro is firm without being too fierce- thank you so much!"
"Because the shirt doesn't have cuffs and is slightly stretchy, I can wear them with ease over my splints even with the sleeves down. No more having to roll them up, or discomfort from them being too tight!"
