“The business, Touch Wood, is fabulous,” said Andrea Lieberman during a preview of her Resort 2023 ALC collection. “We’re in the process of opening a store in Miami in October, we launched swimwear, we found our sweet spot.”
What’s selling is “clothes, clothes, clothes,” said the designer. “People are going out with a vengeance.”
For resort that meant modern, short, structured LBDs in caddy fabrication with cutouts and puff sleeves, or sheer mesh inserts, and resort-ready satin halter slips, ruched jersey dresses, or all-out gowns with crystal-edge cutouts.
Continuing the party theme differently, a crystal mesh skirt looked great with an oversize white boyfriend shirt, and a silver vegan leather pleated skirt with a casual fisherman sweater. The brand’s breakthrough Paloma pillow bag was also given rhinestone dusting.
Suiting has also become important for the 14-year-old contemporary brand, and a liquid peach silk suit is “designed for the moment when you want a stronger feminine feel than a softer feminine one,” Lieberman said.
Other suits were more ’60s inspired, with a slight flare at the ankle, with one of the lime green brocades from the designer “Carlille”, “because I grew up near the Carlyle Hotel and our store was more than that.” It’s a stone’s throw,” she said. A raspberry velvet tuxedo made an even more statement.
ALC has made vegan leather a growth category, expanding it from outerwear to sophisticated daywear, including a price-right Cognac vegan leather oversized blazer and carpenter skirt, which the former stylist designed in a grass-green sweater and lavender. was attached to the bag.
When it came to pops of color and party-ready styles, Lieberman explained that she had Miami New Years on her mind. “We will definitely be opening our Miami store in the Design District by then.”
