I got to do my first park interview of 2015 with Imbyr, who describes their style as 'transmasculine harshfemme' and is obsessed with wrestling, dogs, and reading (mostly sci-fi).
They are a health sciences student and the vocalist for Antibody, a gay doom sludge band based in Toronto. 
We talked about misandry, camp/kitsch and John Waters, short shorts and crop tops, and (how could i forget) WRESTLING. 

‘Find power in your clothing, and if people think that’s ugly, fuck them.
Yeah, just like, Power. And Control.'
 
Follow Antibody on FB, listen via their bandcamp.

and thanks so much for listening! 

It was fun and inspiring to talk to Dre Ngozi and Jade Lee Hoy of Toronto's clothing project Hilary & Denise. Hilary and Denise celebrates and pays tribute to women of colour using pre-loved clothing to cultivate self expression that incorporates culture. Dre and Jade named the project for 90s sitcom queens HIlary Banks (Fresh Prince of Bel Air which ran from 1990-1996), and Denise Huxtable (The Cosby Show 1984-1992). Both Jade and Dre remember seeing Hilary and Denise's characters as unique among young women of colour on TV--wearing bright colours in interesting combinations in a way that was totally unique and expressive.
We talked about finding your tribe, getting grounded, natural hair, Afropunk...and of course FK Twigs and mom jeans.
