This is a full cotton, periwinkle blue uniform. Its minimalist design has a collared, button up long sleeve shirt with a relaxed fit and three pockets: one left breast pocket, and pockets on both sides near the bottom. The shirt is unbuttoned over a white and teal T-shirt, and the sleeves are tucked into the bottom pockets. Its matching pants are the same material, color, and minimal look.

A spray-painted black line runs from the top left corner of the shirt to bottom right, creating various shapes along the way. One the left, a circle is formed and filled with teal coloring. Next to this circle is an upward-moving line that resembles a crack or fissure. Yellow paint appears in this section. To the right, two rectangles are formed, a small one above a larger one, and then the black line drops straight down. A dark shade of orange paint follows this line down to the bottom-right of the shirt, with yellow blooming out of the left side of the orange at the bottom.

This white t-shirt has graphics and text that reads 'Ridiculously Practical' in bold font and capital letters along the chest. Above that, a simple illustration of an eye illustration hovers over a large swath of peach color. The swath resembles large brush strokes, with thin lines and thick broad areas of color. A small signature in cursive, 'Dan Friedman,' is included on the side.

A white, crew-neck t-shirt with a black-and-white photograph of a face, up close. The eyes are covered by text -- white font with black background -- saying 'I can't look at you.' Underneath the face reads the text 'and look at you at the same time.'

This white t-shirt has a bold graphic and small text that reads 'L.A.Z. and Keith Haring' on the lower left corner of the design. The design consists of thick, black lines both curved and straight lines with square, red spots. Randomly arranged across but concentrated on the torso, the red-spotted lines combine ovals, zig-zags, hooks, rays, and abstract arrangements, densely packed but thoughtfully spaced, appearing as if the lines are dancing.
