ALICE + OLIVIA
CREATIVITY + INTENTIONALITY + ACTIVISM
IN THE BEGINNING
Although she was the smallest while in 5th grade, Stacey Bendet could record far more pushups than the strongest person in her class.

Stacey Bendet was raised by her mum and dad in a small town called Chappaqua which is situated in Westchester, Newyork. Her mum was a teacher and her dad managed the lace trade of the family. Her family was among the list of the biggest lace makers locally. From the lace fabric her father always brought home, Bendet would always pick the finest patterns to design wears for her dolls and doll beds. Bendet recalls being in love with making things come to life due to the sense of satisfaction that doing so gave to her.
