10 fab fashions to help celebrate the 50th anniversary of pride
10 fab fashions to help celebrate the 50th anniversary of pride
So many days and nights of pride season, so few polychromes in your closet.
Not anymore.
Macy’s new Pride Collection combines designer silhouettes with just the right touch of a statement. In other words, you can style these sexy pieces to the parade, the club, the brunch, to Aunt Martha’s tea gathering, the house party, and then keep wearing them well into summer and beyond. While you can sort these pieces by gender, there’s really no need. In these non-binary times, you can double your choices with poly pride.
The collection is gorgeous and extensive. Queerty picked out just a few of our faves for you.
1. DKNY
This confetti-splash hoodie will stave off the chill when the party heads outdoors (wait, the party IS outdoors). Bonus: The rainbow-striped Capri tights are slimming.
2. POLO Ralph Lauren
Subtle enough for casual Friday, festive enough for the street, this comfortable tee and rainbow-collared polo are playful yet classic.
3. LEVIS
A casual, flattering jacket hangs over low-slung denim shorts for a look that’s all about summer.
4. GUESS
A curve-hugging bodysuit for the ladies complements a tie-dyed tee for the gents—or vice-versa.
5. ADIDAS
Let everyone know you’re religious about your gym regime in this sporty hoodie.
6. MICHAEL MICHAEL KORS
This wide-stripe hooded dress and knee-length pencil skirt are going to become the most versatile pieces in your collection.
7. CALVIN KLEIN
Whether you’re the only one who knows how fabulous your underwear is or a special someone is in on the secret, you’re going to want these colorful cotton undies next to your skin. Don’t miss the cool women’s versions either.
8. INC INTERNATIONAL CONCEPTS
Get glittery with these INC International Concepts tees studded with stars, hearts, and more. Speaking of INC, through June 30, $4 from the sale of each of these men’s tees or tanks goes to The Trevor Project to aid LGBTQ youth suicide prevention.
9. ORIGINAL PENGUIN
Pride was meant for packs. Get each of your friends one of these solid polos and make a group statement.
10. HYBRID
Take Rose, Blanche, Sophia and Dorothy along for the ride in this soft crewneck cotton tee. Somewhere in Los Angeles, Betty White is smiling.
HRC: Congress Must Pass American Dream and Promise Act
HRC: Congress Must Pass American Dream and Promise Act
Today, HRC called on Congress to pass H.R. 6, the American and Dream and Promise Act, which would offer a path to citizenship for Dreamers, Temporary Protected Status (TPS) holders, and Deferred Enforced Departure (DED) holders.
“Dreamers, TPS and DED holders are our colleagues, our classmates, and our community members, including approximately 75,000 Dreamers who are LGBTQ,” said David Stacy, HRC’s Government Affairs Director. “They live in every state in our nation, and in every congressional district. They contribute to our economy and want to be part of our nation. It is crucially important that Congress give them certainty and security to stay here in the U.S. and continue contributing to our nation.”
Dreamers are undocumented young people who immigrated to the United States as minors, who often do not even remember living in any country outside the United States. It is estimated that there are approximately 75,000 Dreamers living in the United States who are LGBTQ. For many of these LGBTQ Dreamers, being deported back to their country of origin would be particularly dangerous because those countries often have higher levels of anti-LGBTQ violence and even laws that criminalize LGBTQ people. It is imperative that Congress find a solution to recognize and protect all Dreamers.
While the previous administration had created the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) to provide a legal avenue for Dreamers to stay in the United States, the current Administration has sought to end DACA, and also to strip status from TPS holders and DED holders. Their efforts are creating enormous uncertainty and difficulty for millions of people living in the U.S., and for their families abroad.
The Human Rights Campaign will continue to fight alongside coalition partners in ensuring our friends, family, neighbors, and coworkers are not pushed out of the only country they’ve ever truly known.
