Alice + Olivia, a New York brand beloved by celebrities like Blake Lively, will open new stores at Takashimaya Osaka and Kyoto on March 1st.
To commemorate the opening, the brand will release a "lace dress" (¥84,000) exclusive to both stores from its collection line. The girly design features delicate lace flowers on the chest and hem. Customers who spend ¥31,500 or more (tax included) will also receive an original heart-shaped glass as a free gift (while supplies last).
The brand was founded in 2002 and is sold in over 800 department stores and specialty shops, having arrived in Japan in the 2012 Autumn/Winter season. Currently, the brand is sold in six department stores, including Isetan Shinjuku and Hankyu Umeda Main Store. A flagship store opened in Omotesando last year. This latest opening brings the total number of stores in Japan to nine.
