NYC Pride 2025 is more than a month-long party—it’s a celebration of resilience, joy, and radical self-expression. At MWS, we’re proud to support drag performers, queer artists, and LGBTQ+ creators who bring light and color to every corner of the city.

Here’s how we’re showing up this Pride:

• We offer 15% discounts every Saturday so drag performers can get a break!  We like to lovingly call it Drag Saturdays!
• We stock high-pigment makeup, glitter, lashes, and performance essentials
• We spotlight and uplift LGBTQ+ creatives who shop and work with us

Whether you’re preparing a stage-worthy drag ensemble or building a look for the Pride March, MWS has what you need—from rhinestones to rigging.
