This September, we are proud to present our 4th Annual “iCan Do Anything” Fashion Show in New York City — a powerful celebration of courage, creativity, and inclusion.

With the theme “My Voice Through Fashion”, this event centers student expression in every stitch, color, and silhouette. Each look tells a personal story — whether it’s bold and bright, soft and sensory-friendly, or designed with functional access in mind.

We’ve partnered with 8 university and high school programs across the country to co-create custom adaptive garments with and for our students. Through virtual design sessions and interviews with families, young designers are crafting one-of-a-kind outfits tailored to each student’s personality and needs — whether that means integrating G-tube access, prioritizing sensory comfort, or simply adding a favorite color or butterfly motif.

For the first time, we’re introducing groundbreaking mobility technology into the show — including the ExoAtlet Exoskeleton, a robotic walking device that is helping some of our students stand and walk for the first time. By incorporating this device into the runway, we are spotlighting how assistive technology can expand independence and unlock new forms of self-expression.

Earlier this year, at our iBRAIN Gala — featured in The New York Times — we celebrated the resilience, creativity, and dreams of our students. That same spirit will take the spotlight once again.

We’re honored to host this year’s fashion show at Wallace Hall inside the Church of St. Ignatius Loyola — a grand and welcoming space on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, known for its architectural beauty and community spirit. It’s a fitting setting for a night that honors visibility, dignity, and design for all.

On Wednesday, September 10, 2025, our students will take the stage — and the world will be watching.

Every step on the runway — whether in glittering sneakers, wheels, or the ExoAtlet Exoskeleton — is a step forward for adaptive fashion, mobility access, and disability visibility.
