Dark Matter BOSS Dress

After a decade of collecting measurements of 1.2 million galaxies, the Sloan Digital Sky Survey and its Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS) have created the most comprehensive three-dimensional map of distant galaxies to date–and that’s the pattern on the the Dark Matter BOSS Dress. While each dot on the print indicates the position of a galaxy 6 billion years into the past, be assured that this dress is nothing but modern. Featuring a professional and ultra-chic turtleneck style, this dress enables you to look like a boss–while wearing a BOSS pattern.

Saturn Dress

The Saturn Dress encapsulates the iconic Rings of Saturn in a striking way. This pattern is inspired by images from NASA’s Cassini Solstice, a mission that has been extended until 2017. Prior to Cassini, NASA only had brief glimpses Saturn. However, the mission shed new light on the planet’s complicated ring system, discovered new moons, and made the first measurements of Saturn’s magnetosphere. Based on the revolutionary Cassini images, this sleek dress features a grayscale pattern that is feminine, powerful, and professional–making it easy to dress up or down.
