Contemporary clothing company Alice and Olivia was launched by designer Stacey Bendet in 2002, when the brand was only sold at Barneys New York. Now it has grown into a global presence, with a handful of stores in NYC alone. The shop is known for its on-trend women’s wear, including adorable dresses, shoes and handbags in bold colors—and this boutique in particular overlooking Bryant Park is known for its stellar customer service.
