The best rainbow-hued apparel for showing your pride this weekend

Toronto’s first Pride Month culminates on Sunday with the city’s annual Pride Parade—an exuberant celebration of all things queer, and one that holds particular significance this year, as it’s dedicated to the victims of the Pulse nightclub shooting in Orlando. Whether you plan on flaunting an ultra-extravagant costume or sticking to subtler rainbow-printed accessories, here are some of the city’s most adorable Pride-themed finds (because you’ll want to look your best when there’s the chance of partying with Justin Trudeau, who will become the first prime minister to attend the parade).
