Step Into Your Spotlight, with Pride
June has arrived in bold, flying colors, which means Pride Month has too!
As we celebrate ourselves and all the LGBTQ people in our lives, it’s time to think about what makes us tick and what makes us proud to be who we are! Maybe it’s how you express yourself creatively that makes you proud, or the way you love others with so much care and understanding.
Whatever your pride is, the month of June is the perfect time to explore new keep on discovering who we are, and to celebrate everything we find, including all our uniqueness and individualities.
Step into your spotlight with PRIDE this June and show off your truest colors!
Clothing is a wonderful form of self-expression, and a carefully curated wardrobe can effectively communicate who we are. If you tend to stick to black or neutrals, pride month can be a great time to experiment with all the colors of the rainbow!
Incorporating more color into your wardrobe adds spice and personality, and picking clothes in colors you’re naturally drawn to helps you share who you are with the world.
At XCVI, we’re all about working with every color of the rainbow! Vibrant hues and bright shades pop out throughout every collection, and Summer brings opportunities to don all the colors we’ve been missing throughout the chillier seasons. We’ve put together a little list in every shade of the rainbow, highlighting styles in each color so you can have your pick of colorful pieces!
RED
The Preppy Pant in rusted brick red Mahogany takes the lead in our rainbow of XCVI options! Unlike your traditional skinny jeans, the Preppy Pant features plenty of stretch in our Stoney Twill fabric, complete with front slash and back welt pockets, and a hidden internal drawstring so you can adjust to your liking.
With the deep, rich red of Makore Pigment, the Prospect Top shows off in shimmery satin for a look that shines and is totally fit for a party! With an asymmetrical high-low hem, side splits, a box-pleat, and long sophisticated sleeves, Prospect absolutely defines “festive.” Pair with your favorite gold or silver jewelry and some jeans for a look that’s poppin’ with color and fun!
Pensive Wash shows us a unique way to wear the first shade of the rainbow in a deeper red tie-dye splotched with green and white. On the ruched, jersey-waist Alexa Legging from our Wearables line, Pensive Wash makes the ultimate splash! Slip into your favorite oversize sweatshirt and you’re set for a cozy day at home. Or, pair with some trusty sneakers and a basic tee for a look that stays cute all day long!
ORANGE
These bell bottoms are perfect for Pride! In bold burnt orange Sierra Pigment, the Utility Arrin Pant makes its mark as our favorite flattering flared trouser that features a double-tiered, raw-edge hemline. Also available on our Wearables Raymond Dress, Sierra Pigment stands out in all its gold glory! A ruched tank dress featuring jersey side inserts for an impeccable fit, Raymond gives off a sporty vibe that fits like a puzzle piece in your Summer wardrobe!
True to its name, Golden Topaz offers a marigold orange perspective with the Kalvin Top. Dual-satin with a roomy fit elevates this long-sleeve shirt into an elegant number with plenty of shine, so you can step into that spotlight with some satin sheen assistance in warm orange.
YELLOW
Our cargo-inspired Porcia Short stuns in Charlock Pigment, a buttery mid-yellow. Rib side inserts, ruching at the waist, and front pockets make this cropped piece a Summer staple with plenty of function and fun!
In Radial Wash Macaw, a spiral tie-dye in bright yellow and white, the Terraced Wide Leg Pant is really ready to party! A ruched culotte leg and tiered silhouette, plus a drawstring waist and side seam pockets make this pant an absolute XCVI classic, back in stock by your popular demand!
GREEN
Nature’s favorite color pops in for a visit with the Philo Tank in Emerald Lake. A color just as pretty as its name, Emerald Lake adds lush beauty to Philo’s elevated basic feel, which features an a-line semi-flowy silhouette and rib inserts at the hemline.
Bright clover green springs forward with Wormwood Pigment on our Amore Bubble Dress. A novelty, vintage utility-inspired piece, Amore features snaps from top to bottom, contrasted ribbing at the torso, and a ruched bubble hem on either side for an altogether show-stopping look!
The Imogen Dress in grassy Valley Oak similarly impresses, with a front zipper, cap sleeves, side ruching, and mesh throughout for added breathability. Wear with sneakers or heeled sandals and you’ve got a one-and-done outfit that works for any occasion and stands out all Pride month long!
BLUE
You don’t have to feel blue to wear blue! In fact, the right shade of blue can bring out your joy! The sky and the sea make their way into XCVI’s many looks, and the Gibbon Tank Dress in Orion Blue Pigment feels like a hot air balloon ride through heaven with sky-inspired mid-blue. With a midi tank cut and ruched bubble-hem, Gibbon prevails as a sporty-meets-sexy ensemble that can easily be dressed up or down and practically accommodates your storage needs with two large grommet-detailed front pockets–so you can dance and twirl around the Pride party or the beach hands-free all night long!
Sea Sprite Pigment beautifully executes its namesake with a turquoise hue on our Tatem Bermuda, a ruched pull-on elongated short with a slimming fit. Dress Tatem up with a cute tank, some statement jewelry, and your favorite Summer slides and you’re all set for day or night on the town!
PURPLE
In Festival Pigment, a bright magenta with plenty of depth, the Avianna Dress makes us jump for joy! T-shirt sleeves, a mini ruched skirt, and rib contrasts give Avianna that perfect, curve-hugging fit, while the gorgeous rich Festival Pigment brings out all the best parts of your look. With some tennis shoes and a little purse, Avianna gives you a purple power outfit that is to die for!
Festival Burnout follows Festival Pigment’s lead, but with a faded burnout element added to the fabric. Our Hotch Burnout Short takes your standard lounge shorts outside, ready to move around in with joy! Terry material and an adjustable draw-string waist give Hotch a unique take on cropped sweatpants. Wear with a matching tee or tank in black or white and you’ve got a full-on Summery outfit!
PINK
Rosewater embodies pastel pigments, with a powdery pale pink that brings on the calm. Our flowy, dolman-sleeved Spiro Top looks lovely in Rosewater, with curved hems and a single central pleat at the v-neck. Wear Spiro in Rosewater with some mid-wash jeans and add some sparkly jewelry for extra gorgeousness!
In Azalea, a bubblegum pink with a heathered effect, the Fira Pullover looks bright and fun with a uniquely worn-in look. Fira features three-quarter sleeves, a v-neck cut, and contrasting at the hem for a reversed burnout terry fabric look that screams casual-cool and Pride!
Whatever colors you choose to wear–blue, orange, or all of the above–wear them with pride, knowing you’ve made a fashion choice based completely on your personal style! Whether you pull on some shorts and a tank for the day out and about or slip into a cozy outfit for some cozy at-home time, your clothes should give you a confidence boost that makes you feel great in your own skin, because June is the time to celebrate who we are in the company of people who are doing just the same!
