Alicia Crowder at the ALICE + OLIVIA presentation, February 2026
When Alicia Crowder stepped into the ALICE + OLIVIA New York Fashion Week presentation, the room took notice. The actress — best known for her breakout role as Diana on Hulu's critically acclaimed series Tell Me Lies — arrived in a head-to-toe red coordinated set that balanced sharp tailoring with a playful, downtown-meets-uptown energy. E! News documented the moment alongside fellow guests Sonia Mena and Natalee Linez, capturing the effortless electricity that made Crowder's look one of the event's most-discussed.
The atmosphere inside was everything NYFW promises: curated, charged, and unmistakably New York. Against that backdrop, Crowder's bold red ensemble felt like a statement perfectly calibrated to the room — polished enough to command attention, spirited enough to feel genuinely her. Social media quickly picked up on the look, with fashion accounts and entertainment press alike praising the actress's sharp eye for style.
It was, by any measure, a fashion week moment worth remembering.
The foundation of Alicia Crowder's NYFW look is a study in confident proportion. The SABLE DOUBLE BREASTED CROPPED BLAZER arrives in a vivid, unapologetic red — a hue that reads as both modern and timeless under runway lighting or on a New York City sidewalk. Strong shoulders and a polished double-breasted front do the heavy lifting structurally, while the cropped hem keeps the silhouette fresh and current rather than boardroom-stiff.
Made from a lightweight nylon-viscose blend (59% nylon, 26% viscose, 12% elastane, 3% lyocell), the blazer delivers shape without stiffness — it moves with you, not against you. The defined waistline it creates is precisely what allows the Emilie Mini Skirt below it to breathe and swing with full effect. Together, the two pieces don't just match; they amplify each other.
If the blazer sets the tone, the EMILIE MINI SKIRT brings the personality. Cut from a luxurious cotton sateen (74% cotton, 23% nylon, 3% elastane), this low-rise mini features soft pleats that give it an irresistible, fluid movement — the kind that catches the light and turns heads as you move through a room. The bold red perfectly mirrors its blazer counterpart, creating a seamless, coordinated moment that feels intentional without looking overdone.
The low-rise fit is cool and current, nodding to early-aughts silhouettes reinterpreted through a sophisticated, 2026 lens. A back zipper closure keeps the lines clean. Worn as part of the full set, it creates a long, lean line from the cropped blazer's hem to the skirt's fluid hem. Worn alone with a simple white tee or a silk camisole, it's equally at home on a Saturday afternoon as it is at a gallery opening.
Alicia Crowder is, at her core, a New York story — Juilliard-trained, stage-seasoned, and steadily ascending through the world of prestige television and independent film. That creative biography maps precisely onto what ALICE + OLIVIA has always stood for: a brand built in New York City for women who dress for themselves, on their own terms, with confidence and a sense of play. Stacey Bendet's design philosophy has never been about dressing for an occasion or an audience — it's about clothing that becomes an extension of who you are. Crowder, who wears the brand both on red carpets and in editorial shoots, understands that instinctively.
Her appearance at the ALICE + OLIVIA NYFW presentation feels less like a celebrity placement and more like a homecoming. The collection's bold palette and sharp tailoring speak directly to Crowder's aesthetic — refined but never restrained, joyful but always intentional. Learn more about the ALICE + OLIVIA story.
The Alicia Crowder
Wear the Sable Double Breasted Cropped Blazer and Emilie Mini Skirt as a full coordinated set, exactly as Crowder did at NYFW. Add a pointed-toe strappy heel and minimal gold jewelry for a look that is effortlessly show-ready — no stylist required.
Weekend Edge
Break the set apart: pair the Emilie Mini Skirt with a relaxed graphic tee tucked loosely at the front and white sneakers. The bold red grounds the casualness of the top, keeping the whole look intentional and cool rather than thrown-together.
Boardroom Luxe
Style the Sable Double Breasted Cropped Blazer over sleek wide-leg trousers in a neutral tone — ivory, black, or camel. The cropped length and strong shoulders do all the talking; the understated bottom half lets the blazer lead.
Evening Drama
Layer the Emilie Mini Skirt over sheer black tights and pair with the blazer left open over a sleek satin bralette. Finish with a strappy heeled sandal and a small clutch. It's the kind of look that owns the room at a dinner, a premiere, or a late-night opening.
