THE ROW MEN'S SPRING/SUMMER 2010 COLLECTION

The best part of Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen's The Row Spring/Summer 2010 collection is their choice of model. James Ransone is a really talented actor who starred in the critically acclaimed HBO show The Wire. He also played an obnoxious, smart ass yet loveable soldier in HBO's amazingly awesome mini series Generation Kill. If this is your first introduction to James "PJ" Ransone...well you're welcome.

Back to the clothes! Another interesting element of this collection is its normality. The Row is supposed to be the luxery line for MK and Ashley. Elizabeth and James is their more wearable collection. Yet in their first foray into menswear, the twins kept things simple with leather jackets, blazers, black slacks and plain tees. However, a 90's inspired vision can be seen in the wash and cut of the denim.

This collection had me at James Ransone.

Encino Man Meets the Olsen Twins

Remember that scene in Encino Man when Sean Astin was trying to find his caveman bff Brendan Fraser (pre hair plugs) by following a trail of muddy handprints and boob prints, only to find Link getting it on in the bathtub with a cavewomen? Maybe you dont, but that is the first thing I thought of when I saw the new lookbook for Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen's Spring/Summer 2010 collection for The Row.

The collection is simply contructed, using neutral colours and basic lines. There is a futuristic minimalist vibe to the entire collection which is balanced by the usage of mud, twigs, grass, and flowers as accessories.
