What to Wear to Pride to Slay the Parade

Don't know what to wear to pride? Check out our loudest and proudest must-haves.

Millions of people attend Pride parades across the U.S. in efforts to show their support for the LGBTQ+ community. It’s not only a moment that commemorates the Stonewall uprising, but also a celebration of inclusivity and diversity. If you’re attending this year’s festivities, you already know that half the battle is finding what to wear to Pride. The struggle is real. To help you out, we've provided the hottest pride trends that’ll, hopefully, also resonate with your identity. Whether you’re looking for a day-to-night outfit or an after-party look, here are some pride outfits worth checking out.

1. Pride Rompers

If you've never worn one before, men's rompers are actually really comfortable to wear, especially athleisure rompers. Plus, it's a one-and-done outfit. You don't have to worry about searching for separates. Pair it up with pride sneakers for a march-ready outfit.

2. Sequin Tank Tops 

Is it even a Pride parade if you don’t see at least one person rocking sequins? Sequins might come off a little New Year’s Eve-ish, but they’re just as fitting for any Pride event. If you’re looking for what to wear to Pride after parties, try a sequined tank top that comes with matching sequined briefs for sexy glam.

3. Rainbow Kilts 

We’re all about ditching pants, but that doesn’t mean you need to walk around in a jockstrap either. Utility kilts make a bold statement that’s still comfortable enough for walking, running and even dancing. Our rainbow kilt is almost too perfect for Pride, especially the multicolored pleats.

4. Hybrid Swim Shorts

We know that not everyone is going to be celebrating Pride by only showing up to the parade. Since it’s June, you might even be hitting up a Pride pool party, which is the perfect reason to try Modus Vivendi's hybrid swim shorts. From its five-pocket design to zipper fly, no one will even realize you’re planning on going for a swim after the march is over.

5. Men’s Butt Enhancing Underwear 

Sometimes less is more when it comes to finding what to wear to Pride. If you’re more of a briefs-and-sneakers kind of guy, you can always make your butt the main “statement.” A Differio exclusive, our mens butt enhancing underwear is designed with removable butt pads that are so undetectable that they look like regular boxer briefs when worn alone. 

6. Short-Sleeve Jumpsuits

Similar to the romper, men’s jumpsuits have the same playful onesie look, except they’re made with long “pants” instead of “shorts.” If you live in a cooler part of the U.S. or just don’t feel like wearing shorts in June, our short-sleeve jumpsuits are a great alternative. With its slimming fit, it’s basically like wearing skinny joggers and a tight polo without buying two separate pieces.

7. Hooded Onesie

Also known as a bodysuit or one-piece, hooded onesies are a cool way to pull off a sexy-meets-sporty outfit. It also makes a great layer with graphic Pride t-shirts.

8. Futuristic Sunglasses

Every pride outfit could use that last finishing touch with a pair of statement shades that look like they were designed in 3018. While everyone else is rocking the traditional wayfarers and aviators, you can party it up in these iridescent mask sunglasses.

9. Rainbow Leggings 

Your search for what to wear to Pride activewear ends here. Meggings aren’t just for hitting the gym or going on a 5k run. Our rainbow leggings make the perfect rainbow-colored statement that’ll also put all eyes on your legs.
