Alice + Olivia Arrives in the Philippines

Founded in 2002 by Stacey Bendet, the brand began with one goal: to design the perfect pair of pants. Today, Alice + Olivia has grown into a full lifestyle collection of ready-to-wear, gowns, handbags, shoes, and accessories—dressing some of the world’s most stylish women today, including Meghan Markle, Michelle Obama, Beyoncé, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Gigi Hadid.

The brand’s arrival is made possible through its partnership with Stores Specialists, Inc. (SSI Group), the leading specialty retailer in the country.

“Bringing Alice + Olivia by Stacey Bendet to the Philippines reflects SSI Group’s commitment to curating world-class fashion brands for our evolving market,” said Anthony T. Huang, President and CEO of SSI Group. “As we continue to elevate the local retail experience, Alice + Olivia’s debut marks an exciting chapter for both style-savvy shoppers and the local fashion landscape.”

For Nikki Huang, Merchandising Consultant at Rustans Commercial Corporation, the store opening is the culmination of a long-held vision. “It’s been an incredible five-year journey—from weekend visits to the Boston boutique during my freshman year of college, to NYFW shows, early conversations with the brand, meeting @staceybendet, and even a team trip to Korea earlier this year,” she shared on Instagram. 

She added, “A huge thank you to everyone who joined us for our opening party, and a big congratulations to everyone who worked so hard on bringing this all together.”
