In her Instagram post, Louisa also shared a screenshot of a New York Times article titled "We're Entering a Joyful New Era of Lesbian Fashion," which explored the trend of "pairing silky garments with butch suiting," as well as several snapshots of herself in an oversized blazer and matching trousers by Ludovic de Saint Sernin. Additionally, the 33-year-old paired a watercolor painting of Greek poets Sappho and Erinna in an passionate embrace with an image of herself and Anna striking a similar pose in an elevator.
Many of Louisa's friends took to the comments section to wish her a happy Pride, with Ariana DeBose writing, "LIVE queen!"
"I love you BBs. Hottest girls around," Jeremy O. Harris commented, while blogger Sky Maddas jokingly added, "COMING OUT AT YOUR MOM'S BIRTHDAY IS SO ICONIC."
Louisa is the youngest child of Meryl, who turned 75 on June 22, and her estranged husband Don Gummer, 77. The former couple are also parents to Henry Wolfe, 44, Mamie Gummer, 40, and Grace Gummer, 38.
