Pride month is a time to celebrate LGBTQIA+ history and lift up the queer community. When these celebrations include festivals and parades, there’s always a desire to wear ensembles that display the cause and show your pride—while, of course, looking cute. Finding pride clothing for all the events in June isn’t difficult, but many larger brands have been known to exploit the LGBTQIA+ community by selling rainbow or pride-themed products without actually giving back to marginalized groups—or, worse, giving money to anti-LGBTQIA+ organizations. This pride month, it’s worth putting our money where it will actually support members of the queer community, and what better way to do that than by putting your dollars directly in the hands of LGBTQIA+-owned businesses?
While many brands do give back to queer organizations with profits of their sales, supporting LGBTQIA+ businesses outright is an incredible way to focus on lifting up the community. And, it doesn’t have to be difficult! There are so many amazing queer-owned businesses that sell clothing and accessories perfect for pride month. These products not only will allow you to give back to the LGBTQIA+ community, but they’re also cute as hell.
No matter your gender identity or sexual orientation, there are so many pride-worthy pieces to shop from queer-owned businesses. From tees you’ll want to wear year-round to pronoun pins and even underwear to show your pride, there’s a little something for everyone. This pride month, show your pride while also supporting your community. Where you put your money matters.
