Abstract

In this study on inclusive fashion for children with autism, a visit to a children's clothing store and a shirt customization activity were conducted with two autistic children from Criciúma, Brazil. The results showed that these experiences promoted greater interaction and integration of the children with the world of fashion, strengthening their autonomy, self-esteem, and facilitating the process of choosing and wearing different clothes. Additionally, the customization activity stimulated the children's creativity and their increased involvement in producing a personalized print for their own clothing item.
