Alice + Olivia's Party Pulse: Faux Leather Flair and Fitted Fireworks

Alice + Olivia, the New York powerhouse founded by Stacey Bendet in 2002, has long mastered the art of bold femininity through sharply tailored silhouettes, playful embellishments, and seamless day-to-night versatility—fusing polished workwear with celebratory glamour in graphic hues and expressive prints. This season’s perfect party tops reimagined as dresses capture that confident polish: slip into the $375 Sydney Faux Leather A-Line Dress with Pocket, its 100% polyurethane shell delivering a sleek, edgy sheen over a lined polyester-elastane blend, the A-line fit skimming curves with a utilitarian pocket detail for effortless movement from cocktails to dance floor. Or amp up the allure in the $495 Keria Fitted Mini Dress, crafted from 100% polyester with a fully lined recycled polyester-elastane interior, hugging the body in a bodycon embrace that's pure expressive glamour. Both dry-clean-only stunners embody the brand's modern momentum, ideal for nights where sophistication meets uninhibited fun.
