MK And Ashley Debuting New Line Of Sunglasses
Captain Obvious paid a visit to the Olsen twins recently when they came up with the bright idea to include sunglasses in their immensely popular clothing line, The Row.
WWD reports that the sisters, who started the oversized sunnies trend, will start with four silhouettes, a classic metal aviator, an oversize square frame, vintage-inspired brow-line rims and a pair of round 60s-style shades.
“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 told the mag. “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.”
MK added, “Designing eyewear was definitely more complicated than we thought, and of course we wanted to be extremely hands-on."
The shades will retail for anywhere from $325 to $390.
