The designing Olsen Twins are featured in the April issue of Vogue, giving the mag an in-depth interview about their clothing line The Row.
Here are some HIGHlights:
On designing without any formal training
Ashley: “Dualstar started when we were six. And we had a collection with Walmart at twelve, which was the upper tier of the tween market. It was before celebrity designers.
MKO: “And we were really designing it. It would be jeans, a bit bohemian, or with a little blazer. It was really fashion-forward.├óΓé¼┬¥
On their influences
MKO: “We had our observations about fashion changing, when it went from being so eighties to the slipdress and the dark lip. We├óΓé¼Γäód see students coming back from college in grunge. And then Lori Loughlin [Full House] had all this great Donna Karan.
On their future
Ashley: “I want to run a studio. I├óΓé¼Γäód probably like to manage other people on their brands. It could be an artist. A young designer. It could be an existing brand.”
We love the accompanying photo shoot! It’s so nice to see them acting silly and smiling, just like the good ol’ days.
