Contemporary womenswear label A.L.C. officially makes its Asia debut at **Rustan’s>, bringing its signature blend of New York sophistication and Los Angeles ease to the Philippine fashion scene.
Founded in 2009 by celebrity stylist-turned-designer Andrea Lieberman, A.L.C. was born from a simple yet personal need. While traveling with clients, Lieberman searched for sleek, polished wardrobe staples that could fit in a carry-on and transition effortlessly across occasions. Unable to find exactly what she envisioned, she decided to create them herself.
The result is a women’s ready-to-wear brand distinguished by luxurious craftsmanship, meticulous attention to detail, and confident silhouettes designed to empower women in every aspect of life.
Designed for the A.L.C. Woman
At the heart of the brand is the A.L.C. woman—confident, cultured, and deeply connected. She possesses a discerning eye and an intuitive sense of style, embracing fashion as an expression of individuality rather than conformity.
Typically between the ages of 28 and 55, she values cultural awareness, higher education, and sustainability. She is environmentally conscious, globally minded, and actively engaged within her community—qualities that align seamlessly with the brand’s ethos.
A Brand Built on Purpose
The Power of Community
As champions of women and womanhood, A.L.C. embraces warmth, empowerment, and meaningful connection. Creativity is grounded in respect, generosity, and understanding, making fashion part of a larger conversation about confidence and community.
Style Is Personal
Rather than prescribing trends, A.L.C. aims to inspire. Each piece is thoughtfully designed with a distinct point of view, allowing every woman to interpret and style it in her own way.
