Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen "Had a Lot of Fun with Skins and Fur" for The Row's Pre-Fall 2011 Collection

>> Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen have always maintained a streamlined approach for The Row and their Pre-Fall collection only nails down that very notion. "But we nipped everything a bit,” said Ashley, “and made things sexier.” Injecting a '70s feel from looking at old images of Bianca Jagger, the duo created silky blazers complete with oversize lapels and maxi gowns; leather skinnies added a modern flair. And: "We had a lot of fun with skins and fur," Ashley added. The ultimate throwback touch? Dresses were paired over pants, flared trousers in this case, to evoke an upscale daytime look.
