Ms. Manoogian's shoe collection is the perfect accompaniment to her apparel—minimal, sculptural, useful, comfortable. The classic mule shape in 100% leather molds to your foot and goes with everything.

NB: For half sizes, please size up.

Her new coat, still oversized and easy, and super luxurious. The knit presents a little like a felted wool, but it's much softer and cozier than that. A little elastane goes a long way to keep the shape. Shawl lapels also turn into a low profile hood, two patch front pockets, dropped shoulder seams.

They call them "Merch Tees," ostensibly because they're made mostly of cottons and are sorta logo'd...but they're just as nuts as everything else they make. Most can be worn multiple ways, so try sticking your arm or neck in a different hole, chances are it'll work.

NB: Each garment varies, and is one-of-a-kind. Any anomalies should be understood as part of the design, not as errors.

A dress so full of life and happiness it makes you smile on sight. Artisanal, handmade, one of a kind. The epitome of Femail.

It's a gown, a fantastical, Pee Wee Herman-esque gown that feels like a dress. We mean, it's a dress, it's so comfortable. Artisanal, handmade, one of a kind. The epitome of Femail.

This button down is no classic. It's a boxy cut top, but more homme/femme than traditionally masculine. In fact, it defies all the usual categories. The weight of the substantial spandex makes it lie against the body in a skim. Black snap closures, with reverse fabric serving as unexpected trims. There's something of the cowboy shirt referenced, but its shorter than usual in length and cut straight across the bottom. The shirt that will always feel fancy with no effort. Unisex.

A relaxed cut, just short of wide leg, worn below the natural waist. Two types of satin for textural difference and shimmer. These are trousers, fancy ones, that look equally interesting with boots or heels. Two front, two back pockets. Unisex.

This elevated basic reworked as an elegant long-sleeved top. A higher, rounded crewneck, pocket placement is weird and good and deliberate. The shoulder seams on Linder tops are really distinctive, designed to come in and curve, resulting in a streamlined silhouette. Extra long sleeves, slightly belled at the wrists.

These spandex bottoms are particularly beautifully finished. A hard task with this type of stretch fabric. A swirling pattern of alternating black and ivory is at once graphic and classic. Wear alone, layered, under skirts, all of it.

This spandex piece is particularly beautifully finished. A hard task with this type of stretch fabric. Black and ivory swirling pattern and seams, very graphic and pop. There's real shape and seriousness to this top.

A new style of chunky cardigan from Ms. Manoogian. Dropped shoulders, super soft and cozy. Oversized, in a big loop knit, both familiar and new. Wood buttons, side pockets.

A slim fitting, ultralight sweater with interesting scalloped slits across the chest, hence the peaking/peeking. Knit on the crossgrain creates vertical stripes of fluffy mohair. Boat neckline. 

The classic lapped baby turtleneck. In a very subtle stretch babyrib. This time in sand with gray floral pattern. Lapped cover stitches highlight the patchwork look, with lemon yellow screenprinted Eckhaus Latta logo on lower left bottom. Unisex.

This easy trouser is ideally worn relaxed, just below the natural waist. Slits at the knees feature double-layered fabric, with a step hem slightly cropped in length. Two front, two back pockets. Semi-lined. Japanese wool blend suiting fabric. Unisex.

Made from silk and cotton, Milena Silvano's minimalist dresses are beautiful and easy to wear, with a surprising element of shine. Not quite an empire waist. Side slit.

Vintage denim gets Ms. Silvano's handworked patchwork pattern treatment, taking into consideration complementary colors, weights, and fibers. She uses organic, ayurvedic dyes in her color process for a rich range of tones. The back of this oversized jacket features her beige, white, tan, and pink. The result is a singular garment with a life all its own.

Measurements lying flat:
Chest—23.25"
Length—22.25"

Anntian's blazer/jacket/suit/coat piece. It's oversized, really versatile. The belt's removable, but if you keep it on, you get a different shape, of course. The wool is soft and smooth, the suiting kind. The print is totally off. Fully lined. Unisex.

Anntian's best fitting trouser (according to our comprehensive 4-person survey). They're loose and comfortable, and everything is exaggerated. Meaning long pockets in back and front, a longer rise. The wool is soft and smooth, the suiting kind. These are slouchy and relaxed. Just the best pants. The print is insanely cool. Unisex.

Thin wool turtleneck by Anntian, the perennial favorite. You could layer but it might be too beautiful for that, in this abstracted floral that looks like a tapestry. The wool is quite thin, so feels super light while providing a ton of warmth.

Anntian's very special seasonal piece. This is a traditional shirt dress with an optional waist belt, sure. But the material is shiny, shimmery, party-like, featuring their original illustrations of FOOD! That's the obsession this time around, what comes from the Earth, the ground, the garden, and how it's shared by the people you love.

One of their most enduring shapes, it can be loose or drawn in at the waist for more body-conscious shaping, depending on your day. This season their iconic digital prints are reinterpretations of floral motifs, with colors shifting and blending into melting hues that appear as abstract patterns. Their most caftan-esque silhouette this season, unless cinched.

Cosmic Wonder dips into cashmere with this offering of luxe loungewear. Ribbed waist plus a drawstring for precise fit that makes these joggers look more like trousers.

Cosmic Wonder's signature sphere shape, modified for knits is as minimal and elegant as always. The slim sleeve makes this knit feel very tailored. Luxe cashmere, blackest black.

This lovely dress can be adjusted at the waist with a built in belt/drawstring. Pull tight for shape, leave loose for a caftan feel. Creates a gathered look at the waist, and a light blouson feel on top.

A long, minimalist dress in an A-line shape, with zip mock neckline. But it has surprises, mainly gathered circle shapes along the sides that announce the silhouette in the most unusual way. Includes optional belt with small metal diamond shaped detail. Hidden side seam pockets. 

Lauren Manoogian's most wanted piece, super versatile year round, at least in this climate. Oversized and cozy as a coat, or giant sweater. Shawl collar, big hood, two seamless front pockets. Unisex.

Such an interestingly designed bag, gently crushed, with a flip top closure, made seamless with complete leather covering. Which makes this purse looks like an un-classic handbag. One minimal strap is adjustable with brass hardware. Make it short, make it crossbody, or even wear it around the waist. Both lady like and highly unusual.

NB: This leather has been naturally dyed, keeping character and texture in mind. Natural variations of the leather surface occur in this process, sometimes resulting in color variation, light and dark.

Each is completely different, each is hand painted. Big, fat zippers (with custom engraving), really make these stand out. Leather and canvas interior, PVC exterior. 1 large interior compartment, 1 snap-closed interior pocket, 4 card compartments. It holds as much as your compact car.

Avant-garde and easy to wear don't always reside harmoniously, but in this case, they do. These pull on trousers have side pockets and a loose (but not baggy) fit. Almost 3D in appearance thanks to the hand-made pleats along the bottom that are ornamental, origami-inspired, beautifully weird, and inspired. Elastic waist for easy fit. An updated way to wear all-black.

NB: The pleats on this garment were made by hand. The fraying of the pleats is intentional and an integral part of the design. There are options to limit the fraying, such as commercial products Fray Check or Liquid Stitch.

An incredibly cool skirt. Avant-garde and easy to wear don't always reside harmoniously, but in this case, they do. It's a sculpture, really. Almost 3D (or is it flat?) in appearance thanks to its slightly bubbled bottom half, with hand-made pleats along the bottom that are ornamental, origami-inspired, beautifully weird, and inspired. Elastic waist for easy fit.

Definitely one of the favorite dresses by Nancy Stella Soto to have graced these floors. Khaki and black make for a classic combination, as does this looong A-line silhouette. Hidden side seam pockets, and wooden button closure all down the back on a neat placket. Hand-made pleats adorn the sleeves, ornamental, origami-inspired, beautifully weird, and inspired.

While living with William Burroughs at the Beat hotel on Gît-le-Coeur, Paris, and with the aid of Cambridge mathematician Ian Somerville, poet Brion Gysin designed a simple paper cylinder with periodic apertures surrounding a bare light bulb placed on a rotating turntable at 78 rpm.

The resulting flickering light repeats at a constant frequency between 8 and 13 Hz matching the brain’s alpha-waves present in deep relaxation, such as drifting into sleep. When a viewer closes their eyes, sits close to the machine, and the turntable is started, the flickering light induces waves of color and repeating geometric patterns that form and re-form in the mind’s eye. Ian Somerville described the experience in a letter to Gysin:

Visions start with a kaleidoscope of colors on a plane in front of the eyes and gradually become more complex and beautiful, breaking like surf on a shore until whole patterns of color are bounding to get in. After awhile the visions were permanently behind my eyelids and I was in the middle of the whole scene with limitless patterns being generated around me.

Unlike a pharmacological trip, the experience ends when the user opens their eyelids. Gysin called his vision machine for closed eyes the Dreamachine.

Two signals of varying frequency and phase result in a perpetual infinity, drawing and redrawing over and over. The familiar shapes are called Lissajous curves after mathematician Jules Antoine Lissajous and his “beautiful machine” of 1855.

Devised to draw a picture of two superimposed systems falling into and out of phase, the machine was constructed from a pair of tuning forks placed at right angles, each with a mirror attached. A light source is focused through a lens, bouncing off the first onto the second and projecting to a large screen. As the tuning forks are struck, simple vibrations move the mirrors in a regular oscillating pattern. The projected image forms the strange and beautiful curves of a Lissajous figure.

Three minutes of doing nothing, then everything goes black. In 1983, John Socha wrote the first screensaver software to preserve the image quality of computer displays. Published in Softtalk magazine in 1983 and named SCRNSAVE, the simple program turned the user’s screen to black after three minutes of inactivity (the time could be adjusted only by recompiling the program).

Personal computers were becoming affordable and popular, but their high-contrast green phosphor cathode-ray screens were subject to burn-in, where light intensity in one part of the screen left behind a permanent mark. SCRNSAVE was designed to eliminate these ghost-images and preserve the computer’s screen, coining the term and introducing a new software genre along the way.

Dutch graphic designer Karel Martens has made clocks for years. Starting somewhere around 1968, Karel attached new faces to existing clock mechanisms to produce graphic compositions, which by their nature, are constantly changing. This screensaver works the same way.

Based on a wall clock designed by Karel for his exhibition at P! (New York), the screensaver software uses three yellow and blue spinning disks to display the hours, minutes, and seconds of the current time. It does very little, other than spin contentedly. But, on the way, the passing of time produces a collection of graphic arrangements as so many discrete moments.

Recently, it was suggested that Karel's persistent interest in clocks was a symptom of working on his own for many years and that a clock might just be a symbol for “the long gestation period of independent ideas.”

The computer is already a hypnotic device. Staring at a fixed focal length, scrolling, and swiping all induce what hypnotherapist Daniel Ryan calls “subtle learning states.” And on the screen, what we repeatedly learn is a bent set of values including ravenous consumerism, preposterous ideas of hierarchy, race, gender, beauty, and spirituality. We consume these more deeply than we realize.

Hypnotists have used pendulums, repeating sounds, vanishing points, particular vocal cadences, and a variety of other means to produce a state of consciousness and brain activity marked by calm focus and extra sensitivity to suggestion. These tools facilitate what's called “induction.”

Can we use the screen to hypnotize in a kinder way? To prompt specific eye movements, to pulse at certain rhythms, and invoke gestures that calm, or heal, or produce clarity of mind? In EMDR therapy, left-right eye movement has been used with restorative messaging to successfully treat post traumatic stress disorder. Extruding the spiral and making it breathe, this screensaver attempts a similarly benevolent induction.

In 1965, Bruno Munari designed a small black box—the austere 15-cm steel cube housed four aluminum cones, each painted half-red and half-green and set to spin at four distinct speeds on an 18-minute cycle to produce a very slowly turning composite color moving from red to green. Munari called it the Tetracono and its function was to show forms in the process of becoming:

"The art of the past has accustomed us to seeing nature as static: a sunset, a face, an apple, all static. People go to nature looking for images such as these static things, whereas an applie is in fact a moment in the process from appleseed to tree, blossom, fruit."

Tetracono was created as an artists' multiple designed for industrial production and published by Danese Milano. But only 10 were ever made. (An additional run of 100 was produced without motors.) Few sold, and by commercial accounts, the product was a flop. Perhaps it was just ahead of its time.

50 years later, we've moved from the industrial production of objects to the post-industrial production of information. Tetracono was already a post-industrial product—manufactured in steel and aluminum, its purpose was to produce a constantly changing image.

From a small black box to computer softwear, Tetracono is *now* available again.

Elastic waist and ribbon tie on these cropped trousers.

It's hard to find tailored jumpsuits. This one does the trick with the finishing, but also with the technical cotton that's become a signature of Suzanne's. Travels very well with very little wrinkling. Button front closure, two side pockets, buttoned cuffs.

Intricate plaid lace creates a nice tension all around. Mini collar, cropped length, rounded hem.

A substantial looped cotton that's thick and cozy, but did you see the logotype on the back? Who remembers the I Can't Believe It's Not Butter campaign? And who thinks it's time to give it an update? Suzanne, that's who. Relaxed, oversized fit. Unisex.
