The retail world is flooded by a sea of clothing sizes. To find the right one, women must tread through “misses,” “petites,” “pluses,” “juniors” and more, depending upon the store.Director Tim Burton’s “Alice in Wonderland,” which opened Friday, promises to be a curiously creepy take on Lewis Carroll’s classic tale. The buzz surrounding the film has been fueled by Disney’s high-fashion collaborations with jewelry and beauty brands, and a crop of current retail finds seem to have something oh-so-Alice about them.
•With a sleek pointed toe and gleaming red metallic finish, the patent leather brogues from Marc by Marc Jacobs add a bit of androgynous panache to classic black trousers or cropped skinny jeans. The Mad Hatter would approve. $350 at www.net-a-porter.com.
•Created for the film, Urban Decay’s Book of Shadows eye makeup kit is packaged in a booklike case, which opens to a pop-up scene featuring the newly shrunken Alice. A hidden drawer reveals 16 of the brand’s best-selling eyeshadows (with new names such as Jabberwocky and Curiouser), as well as two travel-sized eyeliners and a mini eyeshadow primer. $52 at Sephora and Ulta stores, www.sephora.com and www.ulta.com.
•Combining classic gingham with a fashion-forward silhouette, H&M’s bubble-hem dress looks both sweet and chic paired with simple ballet flats and a cropped cardigan. $49.95
•Jewelry designer Tom Binns created two lines inspired by Alice’s adventures – a six-piece collection with prices in the $1,000 to $2,000 range and a more budget-friendly series of 35 baubles. The latter includes this Mad Hatter bracelet, adorned with chains, strips of suede and an array of quirky charms. $200 at www.zappos.com.
•OPI’s latest lacquer collection includes lush wine, crimson, sparkly turquoise and glittery purple polishes. Add some cinematic flair to a winter day with a coat of “Off With Her Red,” “Mad as a Hatter” or “Absolutely Alice.” $8.50 each at Ulta stores and professional salons.
