Who we are
Nova Edge Threads is a Queer, Trans and Intersectional Pride Shop. We didn't see anyone creating for us- so we decided to start. We’re here to build a bold, genderless and inclusive brand that reflects the people who wear it.
We supply wearable tools for pride, protest and confident self-expression. We draw inspiration by the community, streetwear, tattoos and celestial symbolism. We create pride clothing that celebrates the multicultural LGBTQIA2S+ community and People with disabilities.
Nova Edge Threads launched Spring/Summer 2025 with the first Pop-Up being at Brooklyn Pride. Connecting and collaborating with community is everything. We create high quality pride apparel that feels luxurious, is everyday type of wearable and built to last. We chose iconic silhouettes, flattering cuts and premium materials that are environmentally conscious. We're the opposition to rainbow capitalism and fast fashion. We're the brand that designs with literal pride and purpose.
Why we're here
This year has reinforced the fact that community plays a vital role in our lives. It’s how we endure the impacts of a capitalist world that runs on white supremacy, abelism and cisheteropatriarchy. It's how we care for ourselves, connect and find genuine joy despite big power's efforts to silence, erase or demonize us.
With the continuous attacks on the queer & trans community, we’re the QT owned brand here to celebrate and uplift QT people. We create because nothing is more moving than seeing our people happy, healthy and freely expressing their Queerness, Transness, Cultural and Disability Pride.
Creating for community is a passion project turned small business with the mission of uplifting queer & trans people. The brand is value driven, community focused & shares profits with grassroots organizations serving marginalized community members.
HOW WE DO IT
We're here to elevate pride wear for the global and multicultural community. Nova Edge Threads is an online shop that ships globally. We create premium pride apparel that’s built to last. We chose the most sought after cuts and high quality materials. We're the opposition to rainbow capitalism and fast fashion. We prioritize quality designs, sustainability and inclusivity. No need for cheap see-through white tee’s with rainbows and unicorns. We may give you rainbows and unicorns... but it’ll be how Nova Edge does it. Pride Without Limits. Pride-wear that doesn’t suck.
Pay it Forward
We're a brand bringing you modern pride wear that pays it forward — not because it’s trendy, but because it’s non-negotiable. 10% of profits are donated to organizations led by and serving LGBTQIA2S+ folks, People with Disabilities and People of the Global Majority (also known as BIPOC which stands for Black, Indigenous, and people of color communities).
Currently Donating to:
- Black Trans Travel Fund
- Black AIDS Institute
- Third Wave Fund
We keep our packaging simple — because we're focused on what really matters, unique designs and solid donations. When you shop Nova Edge, you’re not just buying clothes — you’re part of a movement.
POP-UP PRIDE
There's nothing better than being out and connecting with community. Our first ever Pop-Up was Brooklyn Pride 2025. What an incredible experience that fueled creative collaboration. We showed up to the T Boy Wrestling Meet & Greet with Trans Dudes of NY and Trans Dudes of LA. We shared a weekend celebrating the art of Drag at Bushwig and was blown away by the love and support. We represented at the Trans Art Bazaar with BQFLea and showed up in front of the Brooklyn Museum. We brought you something new to Dandyland in Hells Kitchen NYC. We will continue to explore community events and vending opportunities in the greater NYC area.

The bold unapologetic self-expression that fuels queer fashion today is rooted in the legacy of Black & Brown Women, especially Trans Women. Their courage, creativity & resistance have profoundly shaped the LGBTQIA+ rights and culture that we all proudly share today. The language, the lingo, the fierce delivery of shade that so many attribute to the Gay Community- is in truth- from the beautiful Black Women in our lives. From the ballroom to the frontlines of liberation, their ongoing contributions are invaluable. We honor them by committing to resourcing our community organizations who center the most marginalized in our communities.
BTTF is a collective of Black Trans artists, organizers, cultural workers, and visionaries, united by our commitment to advocating for and celebrating Black Trans Women around the world. Their mission as a Black trans led collective is to provide Black trans women with financial and material resources towards education, community, safety and removing travel barriers. LEARN MORE
