In a rare deviation from her and her sister’s usual black, monochromatic ensembles, Mary-Kate Olsen was spotted wearing a bright red coat in New York recently.

My obsession with Mary Kate and Ashley’s wardrobes goes a long way back. I, like many others, grew up watching Holiday In The Sun, Switching Goals and When In Rome, and have always dreamed of becoming my own version of an Olsen twin. From coveting their matchy-matchy Passport to Paris’ outfits to their all-grown-up cool attitudes in New […]

While you may have owned an assortment of Olsen twin-branded drugstore fragrances in the mid-’90s, the multi-millionaire moguls’ newest offering is of a much different calibre. Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen have ditched the pre-teen scent scene and entered the world of adult fragrance with two alluring eau de parfums. Launched as an extension of their contemporary Elizabeth and James brand, Elizabeth and James Nirvana White and Elizabeth and James Nirvana Black hit Sephora shelves this month and are sure to, for lack of a better cliche, fly off them.

Because in the era of just about every personality wanting to grow their brand—and audience— with a fragrance, it was actually consumer demand that prompted Sephora to partner with the Olsens. “Roughly two years ago, Sephora’s Kendo division — the development arm that handles strategic partnerships — approached Mary-Kate and Ashley after a fashion market research survey commissioned by the beauty retailer continually referenced the Olsens’ Elizabeth and James brand,” WWD reported in November.

With multiple fashion labels under their belt and a CDFA Award for Designer of the Year, it seems that Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen are now taking on the fragrance world. It was just reported that the 26-year-old twins are joining forces with Sephora to release a new fragrance under the banner of their contemporary clothing line, Elizabeth and James.

Following the sold-out success of their $39,000 alligator backpack for The Row last year, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen’s followed up with a $16,900 patchwork fur backpack for their pre-fall accessories collection this year. A drop in the sea!

Selfridges sheepishly tweeted “We apologise for any offence caused. It was not intentional and the dress has been removed.” They’re referring to the Alexander McQueen dress that is hanging on a gallows in their display window in Manchester. So, uh, what I they thinking? [Racked]

Remember when designer/Britain’s Next Top Model judge Julien MacDonald said “You can’t have a plus size girl winning — it makes it a joke”? In a scrambling attempt to dig himself out of his hole, he told Grazia he was misquoted, claiming that “I think there is room for everyone in fashion, but if you’re a plus sized model the opportunities are less.” [The Cut]

According to Andrew Rosen of Theory, the upcoming collaboration with Olivier Theyskens will be at a higher price point because “it has to come from his inspiration and from his soul.” So what does Theyskens’ inspiration have to do with the price tag? [The Cut]
