An extraordinary woman. An extraordinary life. What began as a very special project and an afternoon photographing Gloria Steinem became something we could never have imagined. Deeply honored to have been part of capturing these images, now a small piece of her extraordinary legacy. Thank you @nytimes and Vanessa Friedman @vvfriedman for telling this story with such care, and @weldun_ with founder @craeberlin for bringing us together. Gloria Steinem, forever an inspiration. @gloriasteinem Photography @paolakudacki Creative Direction @studio_rapp / Carolyne Rapp

I had the chance to hang out with @craeberlin last time I was in NYC. She had just launched her new high end adaptive clothing line @weldun_ . Weldun is not an ordinary clothing line, it’s an adaptive clothing line that was born out of Carly’s journey in discovering she had the BRCA gene and as a result, had a preventive mastectomy. In realizing how difficult traditionally made clothes were to put on for those with breast cancer, she created a gorgeous collection of stunning pieces. Carly herself is a celebrated artist and architect so her understanding of form, flow, fit is at another level. When she joined Gloria Steinem’s talking circle, Gloria was touched by the mission and agreed to take part in the photoshoot. Gloria, who was also a breast cancer survivor, related to the struggle. She understood the value in one’s own human dignity and autonomy (meaning getting dressed without help). Turned out, those images from the WELDUN photoshoot were to be her last. So remarkable and so breathtakingly proud of Carly! Just WOW!!! 🥹🤟🏽 Read the @nytimes article written by the brilliant @vvfriedman Adaptive clothing is specialized apparel designed with custom closures, hidden openings, and sensory-friendly materials to make dressing easier. It supports people with limited mobility, dexterity challenges, sensory sensitivities, or medical needs, as well as caregivers who assist with daily routines. Key Features and Design Elements • Easy Closures: • Sensory-Friendly Comfort: Uses tag-free labels, flat or smooth seams, and soft fabrics to prevent irritation for individuals with autism or skin sensitivities. • Medical & Device Access #disability #adaptiveclothing #nyfw @aixdisability @nytimes @craeberlin @weldun_

Kort før sin død blev Gloria Steinem fotograferet til en hjemmeside med fokus på mangfoldige kroppe - bl.a. den gamle krop. Hun blev et uvant stilikon. Tøjet skulle bare fungere. Ikke så meget rod. Hendes 92-årige hånd rør mig. - 📸 @paolakudacki for @weldun_

Back in May, this year, my friend and creative director Carolyne Rapp reached out to me to ask if I would be interested in photographing Gloria Steinem. My answer was an immediate YES! I didn’t need to know when, why, or for whom. The thought of meeting and photographing Gloria was very exciting. Carolyne then introduced me to Carly Berlin, founder and CEO of Weldun, a new platform / brand that at the time was developing for the launch in September . When I met Carly and heard her speak so beautifully about her vision and the purpose behind creating Weldun, I felt even more inspired to be part of this project. Meeting Gloria was a very special moment that I will always cherish. A true icon, a force for humanity, and a beautiful human being. She generously welcomed us into her home, sharing her world of memories and travels with us. It was an intimate and unforgettable afternoon, filled with extraordinary conversations and the gift of her presence, generosity, and wisdom. When I asked Gloria about her legacy and her lifelong fight for human rights, she reminded me that it is never about one person fighting alone. It is a responsibility we all share. As she said in an interview, “We need to carry the torch and light the torch of others.” Thank you, Gloria, for such a special afternoon, for sharing your wisdom so generously, and for reminding us that the fight continues with each of us. We all have a responsibility. Thank you for lighting our torches. GLORIA STEINEM By Paola Kudacki, New York 2026 @gloriasfoundation @weldun @craeberlin @studio_rapp

Earlier this week, Weldun (@weldun_) launched a new luxury marketplace that reframes fashion through the lens of physical change, bringing together beautiful design and thoughtful function for women whose needs may change––but whose taste does not. In a world that views things in a very binary way––Abled/Disabled, Accessible/Not Accessible, Young/Old––it’s refreshing to see a platform that doesn’t ask women to choose where they currently sit, but rather broadens the conversation to include different life stages.  Weldun launches with a group of premium brands that signed on early to help redefine what fashion can be. These include Another Tomorrow, Mansur Gavriel, Rag & Bone (including their iconic flexible fit Miramar pants) MagnaReady, STILL HERE and Underwater Weaving Studio, among others. Every piece is carefully and intentionally selected  through Weldun’s curation philosophy, mapping it across four functionality categories: Easy On / Easy  Off, Healing + Recovery, Sensory-Considered and Flexible Fit, making it easier to discover clothing  that honors both what women need and want.   Our co-founder Bérénice (@berenicemagistretti) spoke with Weldun Founder & CEO Carly Berlin (@craeberlin) about her inspiration behind the concept and her vision to offer women better fashion options. 📸: @paolakudacki 🔗 Head to the link in our bio to read the full article.
