Celebrate Pride Month with these 2019 Limited Edition Collections
by Angelique Borja

In honor of Pride Month this June 2019 and this year’s 50th anniversary of the Stonewall riots which marked the turning point of LGBTQ+ rights in the US and the rest of the world, many brands have stood out in support of the LGBTQ+ community. Fashion brands have shown their support by creating Pride collections of rainbow-themed apparel and accessories.

Huge brands have also worked with famous figures to help spread awareness of LGBTQ+ rights, including H&M which tapped Orange Is The New Black actress and LGBTQ+ advocate Laverne Cox for its Love for All campaign; and Fossil also tapped RuPaul’s Drag Race star Alyssa Edwards for its limited-edition Rainbow Watch.
