And we say, heck yes.

The FTL Moda runway had a "Made in Italy" theme but featured clothes from designers all over the world. More importantly, they partnered with Fondazione Vertical, a foundation aimed at curing spinal cord injuries, and Models of Diversity, a model agency out of London that pushes for greater diversity on the catwalks.

So naturally, several of the models on the fashion show came down the runway in wheelchairs, canes and with prosthetic limbs. Because, dear fashion industry, these people wear clothes too.

See the pictures and ogle at the awesomeness.
