I’ve always loved Alice and Olivia by Stacey Bendet pieces. Especially the shorts which holds my Brazilian curves like no other American brand. It’s hard to find a foreign designer who has a fit so perfect for the Brazilian bottom. I have bought many shorts and pants, always with amazing fabrics, plain or patterned, always very elegant. I ofter use the shorts for work with a nice button down blouse our with a tank top and a little jacket. Very cute and comfortable
In Miami, I always found the brand at Saks Fifth Avenue or Bloomingdale´s. But in New York City there are several Alice and Olivia independent stores, and that is when you really feel the “look” of the brand, from the store´s decoration to the quantity and diversity of the pieces.
The floors display the designer´s trademark, black and white “blocks”, mixed with strong colors, from golden yellow and red, decorated with amazing crystal chandeliers. The clothing racks surround the inside of the stores always with gorgeous central tables and literally glass”display-cages” for some of the key collection pieces. So chic!
The dresses also deserve special attention, fitting like a glove, with very delicate movement. I also love the use of sparkles, stones and sequins it is all done with extreme elegance.
I had the great surprise to discover that the online store now delivers straight to Brazil! So girls enjoy it!!!
