Fashion-Forward Insulin Pump Accessories

Craft & Design

This uplifiting video is about Hanky Pancreas, a line of insulin pump accessories by designer Jessica Floeh. She interviews diabetic women about their insulin pumps and introduces an interchangeable velcro solution to help integrate your pump into your wardrobe and feel really great about an otherwise potentially bothersome device. I’m all for new techno-body fashion, since we’ll all eventually be cyborgs anyway. You can vote for Jessica and Hanky Pancreas in the DiabetesMine design challenge.
