Alice & Olivia

Stacey Bennet launched the Alice & Olivia collection in Barneys NY in 2002. Nicknamed StaceyPants, she was often found rollerblading through the city in those bold striped bell bottom pants that the collection became instantly famous for. Shortly after the launch of the line, Andrew Rosen, founder of Theory, recognised the potential of Stacy and her pants and became a partner in the company. The line stayed true to it's roots and Stacey's quirky sensibility, focusing on the perfect pants while gradually expanding and growing into a collection of detailed pieces including everything from sexy sequinned dresses, to great sweaters and structured coats.
