by Stephen Garner

Mavi has released its first-ever Pride collection. Highlighting the common thread that ties all communities together, the “All For Love” gender-fluid Pride collection consists of denim jackets, t-shirts, and other accessories for all individuals and allies who show support for the LGBTQIA+ communities throughout the summer of Pride celebrations in the U.S., Canada, and beyond.

“At Mavi, our denim and our philosophy is built from a durable thread and a love that’s universal, and transcends race, class, and gender,” said Arkun Durmaz, president of Mavi North America. “We believe in connecting with our community and celebrating our individuality by wearing our love directly on our bodies through the clothing we wear. We are thrilled to be partnering with Ali Forney Center and Egale Canada to spread optimism from the inside out, and by helping to bring together those individuals who need support the most, especially after a very tough year. Mavi is here to stand with all communities and to help celebrate the uniqueness of every single person that makes up these communities through the common thread of love.”

“We are thrilled to be partnering with Mavi this summer for the upcoming pride celebration,” commented Alexander Roque, president and executive director of Ali Forney Center. “Mavi’s support is important in continuing our work and programming yearlong to protect and provide resources to the homeless LGBTQIA+ youth in New York City and we look forward to celebrating this upcoming Pride season with Mavi.”

“As Canada’s leading organization for 2SLGBTQI people and issues, we are excited to partner with Mavi for this upcoming Pride season,” added Helen Kennedy, executive director of Egale Canada. “Mavi’s message of spreading joy, inclusivity, and love aligns with our mission of promoting human rights and inclusion, and this partnership will further expand our reach as we celebrate!”

The new Mavi “All For Love” Pride capsule collection, which retails between $10 and $160, is now available on Mavi’s website in the U.S. and Canada.
