It was a matter of time that Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen launches their own eyewear collection since they’re both always out in shades, now they can rock their own. The twins has partnered with Linda Farrow Eyewear to launch an eyewear collection for spring under their luxury label, The Row, according to WWD. The collection features four styles: a classic metal aviator, an oversize square frame, vintage-inspired brow-line rims and a pair of round shades taken from the Sixties, retailing from $325 to $390. The collection will be sold at current retailers, including Barneys New York and Bergdorf Goodman. Definitely styles that the Olsens would rock, I’m sure it will do just as well as all their other collections.

“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 Olsen said. “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.”

“Designing eyewear was definitely more complicated than we thought, and of course we wanted to be extremely hands-on,” said Mary-Kate. “From what I understand, the first year with eyewear is figuring out what the process will be like for us specifically. I think everyone does it differently, whether it’s looking through old materials or archives or working with drawings and measurements.”
