Our mission is to provide free suits to transgender and gender nonconforming individuals in financial difficulty, and paid tailoring internships for queer fashion and costume students to make them. As a social enterprise, we fund our projects through a combination of bespoke tailoring commissions, partnerships and donations. Hors Sujet offers free suits to vulnerable trans and GNC individuals. It does so by using profits generated from bespoke tailoring sales to pay for the costs of materials and labour needed to make these garments. The garments are constructed as part of a paid internship, by trans and GNC fashion and costume students who are facing hardship. The beneficiaries of these services are individuals who are encountering financial and/or housing insecurity relating to their gender identity.
