Lauren Manoogian

Lauren Manoogian is a Brooklyn-based jewelry and knitwear designer. She launched her first jewelry collection in 2010-- soon branching out into knitwear using "antiquated" looms and sourcing organic yarn for a handmade, earthy feel. The designer's simple shapes and ethnic patterns, inspired by locales like West Africa, are staked in her relentless passion for travel and world affairs, each piece a traditionally and sustainably minded personal extension from designer to wearer.
