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 50^th 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 Forbesmagazine 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.
