PRIDE NEVER GOES OUT OF STYLE
As London lights up with joy, colour, and unapologetic self-expression, we’re celebrating Pride in style. London Pride is more than a party – it’s a powerful movement rooted in protest, driven by love, and dressed to express.
A BRIEF HISTORY OF LONDON PRIDE
London’s first official Pride march took place in 1972 – just five years after the decriminalisation of homosexuality in England and Wales. Inspired by the Stonewall uprising in New York, the event was a bold, beautiful act of defiance. From a few hundred brave individuals to over a million attendees today, Pride has grown into one of the most vibrant celebrations of LGBTQ+ identity in the world – and fashion has always played a starring role.
LGBTQ+ DESIGNERS WHO SHAPED STYLE & BROKE BOUNDARIES
The fashion world has long been a canvas for queer creativity, and some of the most powerful voices in style belong to LGBTQ+ designers who have redefined beauty, gender, and glamour.
To celebrate Pride, we’ve curated a dazzling collection of preloved pieces from these incredible designers. From statement jackets to red carpet-ready heels, these finds are all about self-expression, confidence, and joy.
