MK & A

I actually do consider myself a fan of Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen...Unlike other child stars they have managed to create really remarkable careers in the entertainment and fashion industry, and have thus become highly successful business women in their own right. They created the high-fashion label 'The Row' which, unlike the countless other labels created by celebrities, truly is notable, and even got its own show at New York Fashion Week.

From Style.com:
"It's not every day that designers brand-new to the runway score front-row coups like Chloƫ Sevigny and Oscar nominee Carey Mulligan. But then, The Row's Ashley and Mary-Kate Olsen aren't your everyday designers. One of the very few celebrity/fashion success stories, the three-year-old label has become known for its subtly luxurious fabrics as well as its understated and classic yet still somehow edgy cuts, both of which were in evidence at the show today."

Below is a shoot with them for Vogue Italia (yes, I am obsessed with Vogue Italia)
