• Art - No Labels for the Olsen Twins, Unless It’s Their Own - NYTimes.com
  The Olsens oversee 18 employees as co-presidents of the multimillion-dollar company Dualstar Entertainment Group, which distributes the direct-to-video movies they made when they were younger and, through licensing arrangements, produces furniture, rugs, lighting and cosmetics for girls 8 to 12. Through a licenser, the Olsens also turn out a line of bohemian women’s clothing called Elizabeth and James, and on their own they produce a more rarefied label, for women with the means to buy Chanel or Prada, called the Row. Most recently they have also written a book, “Influence” (Razorbill), that seeks to convey the essence of their creative vision, citing as sources of inspiration designers, fashion photographers and artists, among them Karl Lagerfeld, Terry Richardson and Richard Prince.
