The original "Lipstick" Lesbian flag emerged online around 2010 with red lips on 6 or 7 stripes. Emily Gwen designed the simplified 7- stripe orange and pink gradients. In modern usage, the design has simplified this design to 5 stripes.
Flags for Good flags are durable 200D polyester (most flags you'll find on the internet are cheap ~75D). In their testing, they selected 200D as the perfect flag material; anything heavier doesn't fly well and the "back" doesn't get enough ink, anything lighter feels cheap and won't last very long. Made as a one-sided print but the back has ample (around 90%) bleed-through unlike most other single-sided print flags.
"Various lesbian flags have been used to symbolise the lesbian community. Since 1999, many designs have been proposed and used. Although personal preferences exist, as well as various controversies, no design has been widely accepted by the community as the lesbian flag.
The "orange-pink" lesbian flag, modeled after the seven-band pink flag, was introduced on Tumblr by blogger Emily Gwen in 2018. The colors include dark orange for "gender non-conformity", orange for "independence", light orange for "community", white for "unique relationships to womanhood", pink for "serenity and peace", dusty pink for "love and sex", and dark rose for "femininity". A five-stripes version was soon derived from the 2018 colors." en.wikipedia.org
