Stacey Bendet's success story is very unusual: she wanted to make the perfect trousers - sexy pants that could elongate the legs and slim the silhouette. Having accomplished this goal, she decided to found her brand, which is named after her mother Alice and her best friend Olivia. The central element of her collections is still her trousers, always perfectly fitted and exceptionally portable, but today Alice+Olivia also offers evening wear, knitwear, accessories, shoes and bags.
