READ FULL LISTING DESCRIPTIONS BEFORE YOU MESSAGE ME!!! I have temporarily deactivated most listings for custom items to focus on masks. You will get the shipping notification automatically emailed to you when I ship it, there are no other updates besides that. Check the listing you ordered to see what the processing time is! Please be patient the time it takes me to message you back, I have had a huge surge in orders lately (I have 500 open orders instead of the usual 50) and if I spend all my time messaging people asking me to update you on your order, I will never get to actually make your order!

The strapless binders are going to be temporarily out of stock until further notice because many customers do not realize that these are still handmade to your measurements and are very demanding. Until people's attitudes change about handmade products, people actually read these shop announcements and policies and respect my boundaries, these popular items will be not restocked.

Here is a video of myself measuring myself- https://vimeo.com/198896270/1b95efc7b1

Every piece is made to order and is tailored to your exact specifications. Garments are fully customizable and there are no standard sizes. Please see the description of each item for the required measurements. Please give me your measurements in a timely manner, if you do not send me your measurements, I cannot send you your garments!
because of the custom nature of these garments, there are no refunds.

Each piece can be created with your choice of fabric. See all options here:

Rebirth Garments are designed and made by hand by me, Sky Cubacub. I am a QPOC (Gender Queer Person of Color) from Chicago, IL with life long anxiety and panic disorders. I first dreamed of this collection when I was in high school and couldn’t find a place where I could buy a binder as a person who was under 18, and who didn't have access to a credit card to buy one online. I’m especially interested in Rebirth Garments being accessible to queercrip youth and I have a program for making free/reduced priced garments for people in need.

Please contact us if you are in need and are interested in participating in our subsidized garments program.

Radical Visibility: A QueerCrip Dress Reform Movement Manifesto

Rebirth Garments are designed and made by hand by me, Sky Cubacub. I am a QPOC (Gender Queer Person of Color) from Chicago, IL with life long anxiety and panic disorders. I first dreamed of this collection when I was in high school and couldn’t find a place where I could buy a binder as a person who was under 18, and who didn't have access to a credit card to buy one online. I’m especially interested in Rebirth Garments being accessible to queercrip youth and I’m working on creating a program for making free/reduced priced garments for people in need.

In my practice, the intensive handwork makes the process the most important part and gives me inspiration. Chainmaille has been the catalyst to every other medium that I excel in; all of the mediums I enjoy are obsessive and have repetitive patterns. It is the slow, thoughtful process that holds value and heals my mind. Through chainmaille, I have found my patience. For me, everyday is a performance where I bring my body as a kinetic sculpture into the consciousness of the people I interact with in passing and on a daily basis. I embody the spirit of Radical Visibility, and Rebirth Garments is my soft armor. I consider it armor because it has the power to give you the confidence and strength to feel comfortable in your first skin. I have been building myself this armor or protection, not against harm exactly, but as a way to give me courage. Chainmaille and Rebirth Garments are a prosthetic for the communication of my inner world. My body, my identity and my prosthesis are one cohesive being.

MISSION
Rebirth Garment’s mission is to create gender non-conforming wearables and accessories for people on the full spectrum of gender, size and ability. The line creates a community where all people can confidently express their individuality and identity. Our identity is that of QueerCrip, a politicized umbrella term that encompasses queer, gender nonconforming identities, visible and invisible disabilities/ disorders—physical, mental, developmental, emotional ect. In particular, our trans* and disabled communities have very particular clothing needs that are not adequately served by mainstream clothing designers. Instead of being centered on cisgender, heterosexual, white, thin people, Rebirth Garments is centered on QueerCrip people.

Rebirth Garments challenges mainstream beauty standards that are sizest, ableist, and conform to the gender binary. Instead, we maintain the notion of Radical Visibility, a movement based on claiming our bodies and, through the use of bright colors, exuberant fabrics, and innovative designs, highlighting the parts of us that society typically shuns. Through Radical Visibility, we refuse to assimilate and can create a QueerCrip dress reform movement.
