Luxury fashion brand Alice + Olivia is facing fresh legal scrutiny after a new Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) class action lawsuit claimed the company continued sending marketing texts for almost two months after a customer allegedly asked for “No more messages.” Filed on January 20, 2026, in the Southern District of Florida, the complaint in Chernova v.
