Toasting the spirit of Pride
With June being the LGBTQI month, design mavens conjure their Pride vision in rainbow hues reflecting self expression, individuality and style
Even though most of us are in the lockdown, that shouldn’t stop us from celebrating Pride and expressing our emotions through the transformative power of clothing. June is celebrated as the LGBTQ Pride Month to pay tribute to those involved in the Stonewall riots (an array of spontaneous, violent demonstrations by members of the gay community in response to a police raid that began in the early morning hours of June 28, 1969, at the Stonewall Inn in New York). It was the beginning of the modern day gay rights movement and today we’ve come a long way. Queer style isn’t frowned upon and it’s no longer an underground movement. It’s out there - on the streets, on the front row and on the red carpet. Here’s embracing rainbow hues signifiers of free spiritedness and freedom.
