Alice + Olivia Spring 2013

/ Wednesday, September 12, 2012 /
Alice + Olivia's Spring 2013 presentation was set against a mid-60's Abstract Expressionist's dreamscape.  The color palette-soft peach, baby blue, and light silvery white- was straight out of the swatch book of a Mad-Men-era interior decorator, accented with punches of intense cobalt, kelly green, and canary yellow. The signature A+O details we have come to love and expect (peplum skirts, sequins, belted dresses) were scattered throughout, but a few new looks attracted my attention. Specifically, I fell in love with the long gowns and mod shifts with jaunty spring coats.   I can't say the collection as a whole made sense, but as usual, there were a exciting array of looks (whether they formed a cohesive collection or not). I can't wait to see these pieces come spring!


You know we have a weak spot for leopard...Oh, and that cream croc skin bag? Yeah. 'Nuff said.


This coat is amazing! I would love it with jeans and a casual blouse just as much.
There's that peplum skirt and black & white we know and love!


Monochromatic ensemble but with a great contrast of textures .


One of my favorite looks. This coat is divine. 


Ugh, I just love this silhouette! 

These SHOES...and loving the lady-like length on the dress!

Very A+O shape with the matching fabric belt. I love the underskirt peeking out below the hem.

The structured bustier atop the swirling lace and silk panels is both elegant and sexy. Love.

Lovely neckline and beading and the pool of fabric at the hemline. Reminds me of a 30's move starlet.


Wouldn't this make an amazing rehearsal dinner or reception dress?

This one, too! 

Hope you enjoyed the A+O spring 2013 round-up! Stay tuned for more!

xoxo,
Alice
