Shop These Limited-Edition Pride Month Products

Jeremy Pope

June is Pride Month — a time for LGBTQIA people to celebrate while also raising awareness about the issues currently faced by the community. This month also pays tribute to the Stonewall Riots, which took place in June 1969.

To commemorate Pride Month each year, certain beauty and fashion brands release limited-edition products — featuring rainbow designs — and in most cases, a percentage of sales are donated to LGBTQIA charities.

Celebrate Pride Month and support the work of the LGBTQIA organisations with a limited edition purchase.

? Ralph Lauren

Iconic American brand Ralph Lauren has teamed up with a few famous faces including Schitt’s Creek star Dan Levy and Hollywood’s Jeremy Pope to release its Pride Month collection.

The classic Ralph Lauren Polo Shirt has had a makeover and now includes a rainbow-coloured collar. There’s also a Pride Fleece Sweater and two other T-shirt designs available to shop.

When you buy the Pride Fleece Sweater, the Big Pony Cotton Tee or the Pride Cotton Graphic Tee, 25% of the purchase price will be donated to the Stonewall Community Foundation, which in turn benefits an international network of LGBTQIA+ organisations.

Meanwhile, 100% of the purchase price of the Ralph Lauren Pride Polo Shirt will be donated to the same foundation. The Pride Collection is only available at selected stores, so head to the Ralph Lauren website to find out where you can find it.
