title: Designing garments for people with dementia: Innovative practice.
abstract: This article describes the project 'No place like home' which aimed to design clothing that would be more aesthetically appealing and practical for people with dementia. It argues that clothing is often an important part of people's identity, which should be taken into account by designers and clothing manufacturers when designing for people in care settings.
