The planned Alice + Olivia The Woodlands boutique would bring Stacey Bendet’s colorful fashion label to Market Street at 9595 Six Pines Drive, Suite 980. The project calls for a 1,200-square-foot store and a $620,000 tenant finish-out within the open-air shopping destination.
For shoppers north of Houston, it would add a dedicated stop for a brand that began with one specific ambition: creating the perfect pair of pants. The company has since grown into an international label spanning everyday separates, statement looks and eveningwear.
Alice + Olivia The Woodlands Adds to a Houston Presence
The Market Street project would expand the label’s regional footprint. Alice + Olivia already has a boutique at River Oaks District in Houston, whose current directory lists the store at 4444 Westheimer Road, Suite A150, with regular shopping hours.
That existing location is an important distinction. The Woodlands project is a new local destination for the brand, rather than its first Houston-area boutique. It would give customers another place to shop Alice + Olivia within the wider metropolitan area.
The brand also maintains official store pages for Austin and Dallas. Market Street therefore represents another Texas chapter for a company with an established presence in the state.
It Started With the Perfect Pair of Pants
Before Alice + Olivia became a fashion label, Bendet was trying to create a garment she wanted to wear. The company’s official founder story traces its 2002 launch to that search for the perfect pants.
The starting point gives the business a more personal origin than a broad plan to build a clothing empire. A focused design idea became the foundation for collections that now cover many parts of a customer’s wardrobe.
Theory founder Andrew Rosen joined as a partner shortly after the launch, according to the company and Bendet’s Council of Fashion Designers of America profile. Bendet remains the creative figure behind the label, serving as CEO and creative director.
The Personal Story Behind the Name
Alice + Olivia’s current brand history says the name comes from the daughters of Bendet’s mother’s closest friends. The company presents that connection as part of its personal, playful identity.
The name on the storefront is therefore different from the designer’s own name, while the accompanying “by Stacey Bendet” branding makes the founder connection explicit. The supplied sign photograph shows both parts of that identity together.
From Pants to a Broader Fashion Wardrobe
The current Alice + Olivia catalog includes dresses, jackets, denim, skirts, tops and accessories alongside pants. Its visual identity emphasizes colorful prints, detailed fabrics and distinctive silhouettes, drawing on Bendet’s interest in vintage clothing.
The featured fashion photograph makes that approach tangible: a dark patterned jacket and coordinating flared trousers create a complete look. It also connects the present-day brand back to the pants that started its story.
The label reaches customers through its own boutiques and wholesale retailers. Its company profile lists international locations including Hong Kong, Tokyo and Dubai, and reports distribution through more than 800 department and specialty stores worldwide.
Alice + Olivia The Woodlands Joins a Fashion Destination
Market Street combines outdoor shopping with restaurants, offices and a hotel. The property describes more than 375,000 square feet of retail and 117,000 square feet of office space, putting this small boutique within a much larger mixed-use destination.
Its current tenant directory includes Gucci, Louis Vuitton, Saint Laurent and Tory Burch. Alice + Olivia would add another women’s fashion name to a shopping environment already centered in part on designer and premium retail.
TCM previously covered Varley’s planned Market Street boutique. Together, the projects show different sides of the center’s clothing mix, from casual layers to the prints and statement pieces associated with Alice + Olivia.
A Compact Boutique With a $620,000 Buildout
The filing describes tenant finish-out work inside 1,200 square feet. That is the construction scope and estimated cost in the registration; it does not describe a new standalone building or establish the store’s final merchandise selection.
The representative interior photograph shows clothing arranged along wall rails, with a mannequin and a display table bringing individual pieces into view. It illustrates an existing Alice + Olivia shopping environment, rather than a confirmed design for Suite 980.
Alice + Olivia The Woodlands Construction Schedule
Registration TABS2027002454 lists work from October 12 through December 8, 2026. It identifies tenant funding and Lino Picinic of Tenafly, New Jersey, as the design firm.
December 8 is the filed construction-completion estimate. It is not a confirmed opening date, and the official sources reviewed do not establish a grand-opening day for the Market Street boutique.
For The Woodlands, the next chapter is a compact store with a long fashion backstory: a label that grew from Bendet’s pants idea into an international business, now preparing another address in the Houston region.
