In fact, he recently created a fabulous headdress for actress Debi Mazar (“Younger”) and now is busy making a rainbow arrangement for friends who want to celebrate.įlorist Lewis Miller says florists have always contributed their talents to pride events. Mora, like many florists, has been part of New York City LGBTQ+ pride marches for decades. “So many of my friends feel safer because of this decision.” “What a great day,” says florist Oscar Mora, who came to this country from Venezuela to escape persecution.
