A.L.C. Resort 2026 Collection
Andrea Lieberman, like probably every other designer in the world, has tariffs on the brain. 'What you buy and what you put on needs to be meaningful,' she said. 'If you're going to put something in your closet now, it needs to feel special, but not so niche that you can't wear it all the time.' Lieberman's attempt to walk that line comes through in A.L.C.'s resort 2026 offering, a mixture of timeless pieces and festive holiday wear. While the sweetheart midi dress with an ostrich feather-trimmed neckline and the tuxedo-inspired boiler suit are splashy, the outerwear is the true star of the season. A leather bomber with a sloped, lightly cushioned shoulder contrasted with a nipped waist helps her avoid the curse of the costumey, overly padded shoulder. The same masculine-meets-feminine ethos guides her suiting, which pairs boxy blazers with slim-fitting flare trousers. Lieberman's pieces are often inspired by the lax lifestyle and earthy color palette of her California environment. The devastating Los Angeles fires gave her a new appreciation for her surroundings, as seen primarily through her color choices this season. The pale gray-blue that recurs throughout the collection in suiting, dresses, and skirts reminds her of the morning fog that rolls in over the Pacific; clay-colored separates and a green column dress also nod to the SoCal landscape. 'I have such a connection to California, especially that area that was so deeply impacted,' Lieberman says. 'A lot of that happened when we were putting together the color palette. I think it's so intuitive to get that beautiful color of the fog rolling in off of the water and the lusciousness of the green and the soil.'
