More than 1.8 million LGBTQ youths consider suicide each year in the U.S, and this Pride Month GUESS Watches is working in official partnership with The Trevor Project to help support and create awareness for the organization’s formidable and life-changing initiatives. GUESS Watches has specially-designed a rainbow-themed timepiece collection for the occasion. Inclusive of five colourful watches, the #WornWithPride capsule pays tribute to the LGBTQ flag and celebrates the message of empowerment, as well as social and self-acceptance surrounding the LGBTQ community.
“As a global fashion leader, GUESS Watches celebrates individuality and diversity in all ways. Our #WornWithPride collection symbolizes the importance of embracing equality for all across the globe,” said VP Global Marketing of GUESS Watches, Ann Marie Santo. “We support the LGBTQ community and stand together with The Trevor Project with our contribution towards the continuation of the life-saving services they provide.”
The collection carries the signature style of an iridescent blue plating 40mm case and rainbow printed top ring on a smooth white silicone strap. Other pieces boast a colourful explosion of rainbow glitter accents and multi-colour patterned dials, each offering a meaningful expression when worn with pride on the wrist. GUESS Watches will also be donating $25,000 to The Trevor Project.
The Trevor Project works to save young lives by providing free and confidential support through its 24/7 phone lifeline, chat, and text crisis services. The organization also runs TrevorSpace, the world’s largest safe space social networking site for LGBTQ youth, and operates innovative education, research, and advocacy programs.
The #WornWithPride collection is available now on guesswatches.com.
