Celebrating Pride
Pride Scholarship
This June in celebration of Pride Month, a month dedicated to the recognition and celebration of the LGBTQIA+ community. We wanted to give back to the community that has influenced so much of fashion and take this opportunity to demonstrate our values in action.
At DISSH, we celebrate diversity in all facets and acknowledge the continued work and achievements of the LGBTQIA+ community in making this industry what it is today. Our mission is to ensure the industry we know, and love continues to diversify at the hands of those who bring new perspectives, new sources of inspiration, and new voices to creativity.
