A.L.C. is more about wardrobing than storytelling, and fall is perhaps the crux of Andrea Lieberman’s thesis. “For me, it’s a nuanced shift, adding things into the wardrobe that we feel are missing,” the designer said of the fall season. “Nothing monumental happens.” As her own best customer, Lieberman filled the silk shirting-shaped hole in her closet with a variety of blouses, from a traditional rich brown button-up to a billowing mock-neck in navy and ecru. Though she isn’t much a fan of dresses, Lieberman also designed a deep eggplant silk shirtdress with a low-slung waist tie. The palette, mostly traditional autumnal colors, came with an occasional surprise, like a minty slip dress or a raspberry jersey skirt set. “Color, for us, is always a beautiful expression of the brand,” she said. “It’s really rich and really sophisticated neutrals, but always with an unexpected mint or red.”
