From a child with mis-matched socks to being recognized as one of the Chicago Tribune’s 2018 Chicagoans of the year, Sky Cubacub is the founder - and heart and soul – of Rebirth Garments; a clothing line for people on the full spectrum of gender, size and ability. Rebirth Garments is more than a clothing brand, it is a movement centred around a concept which Sky calls “Radical Visibility” which really challenges the way we think about dress and what that signals to those around us. I was very lucky to have been able to catch up with Sky recently to talk about the brand, their projects and what is means to be radically visible.
