Olsen Twins Launching Eyewear Collection
Mary-Kate Olsen and Ashley Olsen are expanding their billion dollar empire and launching an eyewear collection for spring under their luxury label The Row, reports Women`s Wear Daily.
Retailing from $325 to $390, the collection features four styles: a classic metal aviator, an oversize square frame, vintage-inspired brow-line rims and a pair of round shades taken from the Sixties.
"We?re testing the market first and obviously these are four very different silhouettes, so we?re seeing what people are responding to and we?ll open up a couple more silhouettes for fall," Ashley Olsen said.
"We tried to find certain pieces that look good on more than one face, to pay close attention to how they fit certain faces and make them wearable at the same time."
"Designing eyewear was definitely more complicated than we thought, and of course we wanted to be extremely hands-on," Mary-Kate added.
The collection will be available at Barney`s New York and Bergdorf Goodman. They may be pint size, but there`s nothing small about their fashion empire. Talk about an inspiration to young designers!
