There are few occasions more utterly joyous than London’s annual Pride parade, the rainbow-hued celebration which, this year, saw over 32,000 people from 500 LGBTQIA+ community groups and businesses take to the streets of the capital on Saturday. Led by the Mayor of London, the procession made its way from Hyde Park Corner to Piccadilly Circus and Trafalgar Square before culminating in Westminster, after which the revelry continued at the Trans and Non-Binary Community Stage in Soho Square, the Cabaret Stage on Dean Street, the World Stage in Golden Square, the LGBTQIA+ Women’s and Non-Binary Stage in Leicester Square, and the Youth Zone in Victoria Embankment Gardens. As attendees basked in the glorious sunshine, there was, as usual, a stunning array of exuberant looks on display. Thankfully, photographer Aimee McGhee was on hand to capture all the festivities for Vogue. Below, see her very best shots from the day.
