Happy Pride! With June officially here, you’ve probably noticed an uptick in rainbows on your feed, as well as countless events happening to support the LGBTQ+ community and celebrate how important it is for everyone to be free to be their authentic selves. Whether you have a full agenda of Pride activities on your plate or simply want to embrace the joy throughout the month, you might be on the hunt for outfit inspo that blends your personal aesthetic with the festive energy in the air—and you’ve come to the right place. Ahead, see 12 Pride outfit ideas to get you inspired, from classic rainbow ensembles to party-ready takes on summer staples.
Waterside Rainbows
If you plan on being on the water this Pride month—whether it’s a boat outing, going to the pool, or hitting up the beach—a colorful swimsuit is the most straightforward and practical way to keep the Pride energy going. Be sure to have fun with your accessories, whether you go for a pair of heart-shaped sunnies, some rainbow socks, or all of the above.
Crochet Baddie
Crochet is always a fun vibe for summer, and this jacket provides a colorful take on the classic knit for Pride. Pair it with oversized sunglasses and a beanie for an ultra-cool moment.
Pink Pony Club
Chappell Roan is undoubtedly one of the biggest music artists of this Pride month, with tracks like “Good Luck, Babe!” and “Hot to Go!” competing to take the cultural place that Kylie Minogue’s “Padam Padam” held last year. Pay tribute to her song “Pink Pony Club” while leaning into the trending Western aesthetic by pairing your favorite glitzy, rhinestone-covered cowboy hat with a shirt in the same hue (bonus points if it’s pink and latex-adjacent), then finish the look off with a colorful necklace.
Summer Separates
For a Pride outfit idea that’s a bit unassuming yet still festive and summery, take note from Muna’s Katie Gavin. Here, she pairs a low-waisted butter yellow midi skirt with a vintage-inspired mesh top, and the result works for everything from parades to brunches to casual days with your crew. Throw on a rainbow evil eye stud to complete the look.
Color Blocking
If you’d rather your Pride outfit stick to just a few colors of the rainbow, take some inspo from how Kim Petras combined pink and green in this color blocking ensemble. To get a similar style, opt for a pink long-sleeve shirt, a green mini skirt, and a pair of oversized crystal sunnies.
Major Cutouts
With Pride month taking place in the summer, it’s the perfect time to show some skin—which can also be a practical choice on the hottest days. This daring cutout look that Janelle Monáe wore in 2023 proves that even an all-black look can feel right at home amidst a sea of rainbows. Choose a black crop top and mini skirt featuring cutouts, then add a subtle colorful pop with a pair of dangly rainbow earrings.
Cozy Celebration
If you’re looking for a way to make your Pride style a little cozier, this rainbow striped sweater as seen on Hayley Kiyoko beautifully fits the bill. Pair it with a vivid platform pair of Ugg sandals and, of course, some knockout shades.
Pride Barbie
2023 was Barbie summer, and the joyful nostalgia it brought us isn’t going away any time soon, especially when it comes to Pride events. To channel a similar vibe, throw on a pink mini skirt, white tank, and a daring silver bag. Bonus points if you have some white sunnies to complete the look.
Power Suit
A power suit in a vibrant color is a classic and confident Pride outfit choice, so choose a style in your favorite shade and know that all eyes will be on you in the best way. Inspired by Ruby Rose’s look above, we found a picture-perfect pink suit and a matching bag that would look absolutely darling together—inner tube optional.
Monochrome Metallics
Monochromatic looks are always going to be in, whether you’re hitting up a Pride event or enjoying a night out any time of year. Take note from this fun metallic ensemble on Kehlani—she opted for an orange-toned palette, but you can recreate it in any shade you like. Embrace the current trends (and some space siren energy) by going for a full silver moment, with a bustier and matching pants to bring the look together.
Tie Dye Dreams
Tie-dye is one of the best ways to creatively incorporate the colors of the rainbow, and this dreamy sweat set is ready for all your most laid-back days during Pride month and beyond. Whether you have some tie-dye pieces you made circa 2020 (remember the tie dye craze?) or plan to shop, the look is bold enough that you can go simple with the accessories and still make a statement.
Rainbow Loving
No one does Pride style quite like Lady Gaga, and this rainbow-centric look is a great source of inspo for any event this month. To get a similar look, start out with a denim jacket with rainbow details, then finish it off with some denim shorts and rainbow boots.
