Super Fun Awesome Rainbow Fashion = Pride

What a difference a year makes. Last June, I was walking around New York during Pride Week thinking that in DC you would never see the retail window displays supporting Pride like you do in New York. I was wrong. This year, even the stores at Tyson’s Corner Mall and Target are promoting rainbows and Pride everywhere you turn. There is a debate right now about how much brands should be making statements in terms of social issues that are not directly related to their brands. You could also debate whether it is OK for brands to make money off the Pride ethos without giving some of it back to the cause. You can wear rainbow themed clothing for Pride or just because rainbows are awesome, but we hope seeing more rainbows around this month and every day will help those who might sometimes feel excluded, feel more included.

We’ve already lost a reader over a perceived lack of coverage of Republican women’s fashion. At RLS, we are not afraid to say that we support marriage and families of all kinds. In fact, styling a gay wedding was one of our most fun, rewarding experiences ever. So read us or don’t, but we aren’t afraid to say:

We are all equal no matter who we love. As the T-shirt below says,

humanity

love

equality

hope
