Our Story

Thank you for coming to Odera, I’m Sonia and here’s my story:

I’ve always been passionate about fashion. Ever since I was little, I loved getting dressed with my sibling playing with outfits, trying new styles, and expressing myself through what I wore. But even early on, I noticed something that didn’t feel right.

My experience with fashion was full of excitement and creativity, but my siblings who had a disability were completely different. Their clothes were just… functional. There was no spark, no joy, no sense of style. And that always bothered me, because it shouldn’t be that way.

Fashion should be for everyone. It should make everyone feel seen, confident, and excited.

When I went to fashion school, that thought never left me. I started learning about adaptive fashion and the moment I did, something clicked. I realized I didn’t just want to make clothes; I wanted to reimagine the entire experience of fashion for people with disabilities. Therefore I made it my mission.

That’s how Odera was born a name that means change, a shift, a redo. To me, Odera represents more than a brand. It’s a movement for and with people with disabilities to make fashion accessible, inclusive, and exciting for all of us.

Odera is for you. I can’t wait to built it together!
