At the ALICE + OLIVIA Spring 2026 NYFW Presentation on September 13, 2025, rising actress Isabella Briggs turned heads in the brand's standout embroidered denim duo — the Beautiful Embroidered Jean and the Emerson Denim Military Jacket. The Carnegie Mellon–trained actress, best known for her breakout role in The Summer I Turned Pretty Season 3, was photographed alongside designer Stacey Bendet, cementing her status as one of fashion's most exciting new faces.

The Moment Everyone Was Talking About

ALICE + OLIVIA Spring 2026 NYFW Presentation, September 13, 2025

Isabella Briggs delivered the kind of effortless glamour that makes Fashion Week worth watching. On September 13, 2025, the rising actress arrived at the ALICE + OLIVIA Spring 2026 Presentation in New York City, stepping into a room buzzing with creative energy and the unmistakable signature of designer Stacey Bendet's world.

Briggs was photographed alongside fellow guest Sofia Bryant and Stacey Bendet herself — a moment that quickly rippled across social media feeds and editorial roundups from outlets including Who What Wear, Numéro Netherlands, and The Bare Magazine. With over 280,000 Instagram followers and a TikTok presence that's already racked up tens of thousands of likes, her appearance at NYFW felt less like a debut and more like an arrival.

Fresh off her elevation to series regular on Amazon Prime Video's The Summer I Turned Pretty Season 3, Briggs brought the same magnetic presence to the front row that she brings to the screen — grounded, fashion-forward, and entirely herself.

The Beautiful Embroidered Jean

Every standout NYFW look starts with a foundation that commands attention — and for Isabella Briggs, that foundation was the BEAUTIFUL EMBROIDERED JEAN. Cut in a high-rise, wide-hem bell bottom silhouette, these jeans are engineered to flatter from every angle. The dark, love-worn denim wash carries a vintage romanticism that feels at once nostalgic and entirely fresh.

But the true showstopper is the intricate floral embroidery that climbs the leg — the kind of detail that stops conversation mid-sentence. Crafted from 98% cotton with just a touch of elastane, the fit is as comfortable as it is covetable. The wide, sweeping hem creates a long, fluid line that pairs beautifully with the cropped proportions of the jacket above, creating visual balance that feels intentional and effortless all at once.

This is a jean that doesn't ask permission — it announces itself.

The Emerson Denim Military Jacket

Layered over the Beautiful Embroidered Jean, the EMERSON DENIM MILITARY JACKET completes the look with a refined utility edge that is pure ALICE + OLIVIA. Cropped to hit just above the waist, its structured silhouette creates a clean break between the jacket and the wide-leg sweep of the jeans below — a proportion play that is as flattering as it is fashion-forward.

Inspired by classic military styling, the jacket is elevated at every turn: embroidery that echoes the artwork on the jeans threads the two pieces into a cohesive set, while gold button front closures add a luxurious finish. The mock neck adds just enough polish to keep the look elevated without sacrificing the cool, downtown energy that Briggs wore so naturally at the NYFW presentation.

Worn together, the jacket and jean form a standout matching set. Worn apart, each piece holds its own as a statement in its own right.

Why It Works: Isabella Briggs & ALICE + OLIVIA

A natural fit between a rising star and a fearless designer.

Isabella Briggs is the embodiment of the ALICE + OLIVIA woman: creative, confident, and completely herself. Stacey Bendet has always designed for women who dress for themselves — who choose fashion as a form of self-expression rather than obligation. Briggs, a Carnegie Mellon–trained actress who has consistently chosen challenging, character-driven roles over easy recognition, carries that same conviction off-screen.

At the Spring 2026 NYFW presentation, ALICE + OLIVIA celebrated a collection rooted in artisanal detail, romantic proportion, and a fearless mixing of utility and femininity — values that lived and breathed in the embroidered denim set Briggs wore. Her presence at the show wasn't just a celebrity appearance; it was a genuine alignment of aesthetic and spirit. Learn more about the ALICE + OLIVIA story.

How to Style It: Four Ways to Wear the Look

The Isabella Briggs
Wear the Beautiful Embroidered Jean and Emerson Denim Military Jacket together as a full matching set, finished with strappy heeled sandals and minimal gold jewelry. This is the look — downtown cool meets NYFW front-row polish, exactly as Isabella wore it.

Weekend Edge
Break up the set by pairing the Emerson Denim Military Jacket over a simple white ribbed bodysuit and white sneakers. The embroidery does the heavy lifting; the rest stays clean and casual for effortless off-duty style.

Full Sparkle
Let the Beautiful Embroidered Jean take center stage by pairing it with a fitted satin camisole in a deep jewel tone. The wide bell hem and floral embroidery feel dressed-up enough for dinner, yet relaxed enough to dance the night away.

Layered Luxe
Layer the Emerson Denim Military Jacket over an evening slip dress for a high-low contrast that is quintessentially ALICE + OLIVIA — structured utility meets sheer romance in one effortless outfit.
