Named Textile Elizabeth and James, the denim lineup will consist of three jean designs with a strong seventies vibe, inspired by the Olsen’s actual wardrobe. Check out the Olsen twin’s denim line!

In two weeks Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen will bring their high end label “The Row” to their first fashion presentation at New York Fashion Week. Today, the Olsen twins are launching their junior brand, called “Olsenboy”.

But there’s more to come; the twins have announced a denim-based secondary collection under their “Elizabeth and James” contemporary label.

The denim project is called Textile Elizabeth and James and will launch in March.
The three-jean lineup will have a strong Seventies vibe, inspired from actual jeans in the Olsen twins’ own wardrobe, with one pair dating back to their high school years.

The denim line consists of the Hendrix jean with a slight bell-bottom, the lowrise Stevie and a cropped, high-waisted jean, the Joni.

The Olsen twins’ Textile Elizabeth and James jean collection will be launched in March exclusively at Bergdorf Goodman, Neiman Marcus and Intermix and will wholesale from $106 to $111.

For the fall, Mary-Kate and Ashley plan to launch a whole lifestyle collection for the line.
“We’re talking about the favorite things you want to wear with your jeans, like the ultimate flannel shirt,” said Jane Siskin, president and chief executive officer of L’Koral Industries, which produces Elizabeth and James as well as Olsenboye.

“Elizabeth and James is a name the customers really relate to,” said Siskin. “To give them this other piece of their wardrobe, with the same brand, is an easy connect.”

Raparo Shoes – Luxury for Your Feet

Indulge your fashion obsession with the ultimate statement shoes, the beautiful Raparo shoe designs! The Italian luxury shoe designer is definitely a visionary with each creation, especially the Raparo Cut-Out Platform Pumps and Double Buckle Python Low Boots – we immediately fell under their spell!

What are the main ingredients for a successful brand to impose itself on the market?
For the buyers to want more and more products? You see, the problem with shoes could be easily compared to the problems of a relationship. It has to have passion, commitment, and a certain number of healthy rules, something different and a magic start.

That’s how I would dare to describe a name in the shoe industry, Raparo. This a family company started in Italy almost 20 years ago.
The father, Francesco Raparo, and his sons managed to bring to file, out of their own beliefs and standards, a shoe company that dedicates itself to create high quality, handicraft shoes, which are handmade, with a particular attention to fabrics, very carefully chosen.

Among its best creations for the fall season, we loved the Raparo Cut-Out Corcodile Platform Pumps, with a beautiful design and made of 100% crocodile skin.

The Raparo Cut-Out Corcodile Platform Pumps ($1,556/£823.68/€ 936) feature a 4.7 inch/120mm crocodile leather covered tapered heel and a 1.5 inch/40mm partially covered platform, a slightly pointed stitched toe with wide cut-out straps with small elastic bands in between.
This specific model goes with almost everything you can imagine, so it’s a pretty good investment for you!

The Raparo Double Buckle Python Low Boots have also a 4.7inch/120mm tapered python covered heel, a 1.5inch/40mm covered platform, a back zip closure for easy wear and adjustable buckle strap. Made of genuine python skin, these boots come in black and gray and retail for $914/£480.48/€546.
