Influence by Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen

Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, the 21 year old sisters, seem to have a lot to talk about. To write their book, they got inspired by everyone who influenced their life. Hence the title of the book “Influence”. Their aim is to share with us what made them the fashion icons as we know them, with, for instance, their own clothing line.

Influence par Mary-Kate et Ashley Olsen

A 21 ans, Mary-Kate Olsen et sa sœur Ashley Olsen semblent avoir déjà beaucoup de choses à raconter. Pour écrire leur livre, elles se sont inspirées de la rencontre des personnes qui les avaient le plus "influencées" dans leur vie. D'où le titre de leur livre, Influence. Leur but est de partager avec nous ce savoir qui leur a permis d'être aujourd'hui des icônes de mode, avec leur propre ligne de vêtements.




Here is what the book is about, according to Ashley’s introduction:
“The book you are holding in your hands is comprised of conversations my sister and I have had with artists, designers, photographers, writers, and personalities who come from different backgrounds, industries, age groups, and points of view. … It’s my hope each one will remain a constantly evolving conversation that will continue to influence every project that I do - and perhaps by reading, you will be similarly affected by these interviews too.”
