PVH Corp. Celebrates NYC Pride 2018
Continuing a long-standing commitment to an inclusive
environment where every individual is valued, PVH will participate
in the NYC Pride March as a Platinum Sponsor for the third year in
a row. This will be the first WorldPride hosted in the United
States and it commemorates the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall
Uprising in Greenwich Village, largely credited as the beginning of
the LGTBQ+ equality movement.
“Individuality, one of our important company values, fuels our
culture where diverse perspectives are embraced and everyone is
empowered to be themselves,” said Emanuel Chirico, PVH Corp.
Chairman and CEO. “Celebrating Pride on a global scale gives our
PVH family a powerful platform to demonstrate that we stand for
inclusiveness within our workplace and the world at large.”
PVH is dedicated to putting people first, with inclusion and
diversity at the center of how the company does business. This
year, PVH co-authored an industry briefing with the Council of
Fashion Designers of America to hold the apparel industry
accountable to be both inclusive and diverse. PVH also was
recognized by Forbes magazine on the Best Employers for Diversity
2019 list and received a perfect score of 100 on the 2019 Corporate
Equality Index (CEI), administered by the Human Rights Campaign
Foundation.
Capsule Pride Collections
PVH’s Calvin Klein, Tommy Hilfiger, Speedo USA and Izod
businesses will all offer capsule collections designed in support
of Pride. Tommy Hilfiger and Calvin Klein have also made donations
to the Human Rights Campaign Foundation (HRCF) in support of LBGTQ+ equality.
Calvin Klein will launch a dedicated Pride campaign, NOTHING BUT
PRIDE IN #MYCALVINS, featuring the brand’s capsule collection of
apparel, accessories and underwear that will be available globally
through June. The CK ONE fragrance also will be offered with a
limited-edition Pride sleeve at select Macy’s stores in late

The TOMMY HILFIGER Pride collection features apparel,
accessories and underwear available through the month of June.
Speedo USA’s special edition Pride collection features
apparel, accessories and swimwear, available on Speedo.com and
Amazon.com through the month of June.

shirts for Pride available through the month of June.
WorldPride March 2019
PVH’s presence at the WorldPride March will feature hundreds of
associates wearing special-edition Pride t-shirts marching
alongside a custom-branded float. A team of dancers will be
wearing the CALVIN KLEIN, TOMMY HILFIGER, Speedo and IZOD
Pride capsule collections, and there will be live performances by
world-renowned DJ Lina Bradford. This initiative is supported by
PVH’s associate-led LGBTQ+ Business Resource Group, Well-Connected,
Equality, Resourcefulness and Knowledge (W.E.R.K).
PVH developed an exclusive Pride logo that has become synonymous
with the company culture in celebration of individuality. The
Company will share highlights from its Pride celebrations across
its social channels (#WeArePVH).
