Ashley and Mary-Kate Olsen Bring the Boho and the Row to Both Coasts

It’s rare these days to get a sighting of Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, the elusive designers of The Row, original boho style innovators, and Chanel darlings. But this week, the twins have both made public appearances—just on different coasts.

Mary-Kate was photographed at the U.S. Open on Wednesday night (September 3), taking place in New York. Sitting in the stands with a friend, she spectated Day 11 of the tense tennis tournament, but chose to swerve the usual styles of the crowd. Instead of tennis whites and preppy separates, or the looks enjoyed by fellow spectators like Katie Holmes and Em Rata, the designer opted for a paisley print kaftan over a white button-up shirt with the sleeves rolled up, accessorizing with a silver necklace, and chunky silver and gold rings. It was a relaxed look that proves the designer’s decades-long allegiance to the spirit of bohemian style.

Back on the west coast, Ashley Olsen joined her husband Louis Eisner and her acclaimed fashion photographer mother-in-law Lisa Eisner at the YES Scholars 25th Anniversary Gala, held at the Bel-Air Country Club in Los Angeles on September 4. The event always tends to be starry—Jennifer Lopez was also in attendance—and celebrates the work done by the Eisner’s organization to empower high-achieving students from low-income communities.
