For those of you who don’t know, June is Pride Month and if you’re looking to further show your support for the LGBTQ community, Urban Outfitters has got you covered. They have just launched a seven-piece Pride collection, which includes T-shirts and caps with rainbow and heart illustrations. The collection also features a baseball cap with “PRIDE” stitched on the front in rainbow colors and a sweater with four interlocking arms.
The clothing brand partnered with Chicago-based rapper Taylor Bennet who came out as bisexual earlier this year. He is very open about his support for his community and sees a positive future saying, “We’re at the point now where you can do your thing and be accepted. If someone doesn’t want to accept you, then—pardon my language—f*ck ‘em. You’ve got to be yourself 24/7. You don’t want to live a lie, and with the platform that I have, I want my fans to always know me.”
Aside from showing that “love is love” through your clothes, 100 percent of the profits gained from the collection will go to the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network. GLSEN is an organization trying to create a safe environment for LGBTQ students in K-12 schools.
Show your support for the LGBTQ community by shopping the collection here.
