Two doors, one republic. Choose a side — the designs and the models wearing them live behind each.
The Garden State, tailored. Parody & satire in navy, cream and gold — from the Hudson waterfront, where the view is Manhattan, down to the lighthouse shore.

New Jerseyistan is the Garden State line of Michiganistan Design Studios, drawn up under Maynila Interactive Studios — the house that turned one Great Lakes joke into a whole map. Same joke, better view.
Its capital is the waterfront: Hoboken, Weehawken, Jersey City and Liberty State Park, where New Jersey keeps the finest seat in America — front row to the Manhattan skyline, with Lady Liberty standing watch over the harbor. New York gets the skyline. Jersey gets the view of it.
The provinces hold just as strong: the Shore, boardwalk after boardwalk under the Barnegat light; the collegiate country around Princeton; the diners that never close; Oak Tree Road in Edison, where Little India feeds half the state; and a certain North Jersey family of television legend, who would like it noted that they were here first. The university is fictional. The state pride is not.
The honest status: the first New Jerseyistan designs are being made right now. Nothing is dressed up as ready before it is — no stand-in products, no placeholder prices.
When the drop is ready, the designs — and the models wearing them — appear on the Men’s and Women’s pages first.
One design system, state by state, in order. Michiganistan leads as the flagship; the rest of the map follows.
The flagship store is open today. Shop the Michiganistan collection — the line that started the whole map — while New Jerseyistan finishes its first run.
Shop MichiganistanNew Jerseyistan is a satirical parody fashion line from Michiganistan Design Studios — a love letter to New Jersey, its waterfront, its shore, and everyone who ever paid a toll on the Turnpike and called it home anyway. The republic is fictional. The fleece will be real.
The view is ours.
