The Olsen Twins at 2008 MET Costume Gala

May 6, 2008 in Ashley Olsen, Mary Kate Olsen

I think The Metropolitan Museum of Art Costume Institute Gala is my favorite of all the celebrity fashion events. All the outfits are always really fun and colorful, and there’s no pretense of having some boring awards ceremony getting in the way like at the stupid Oscars or something. Yawn. Anyway, going by this logic you know who else loves the Costume Institute Gala? That’s right, the Olsen twins! Since they don’t actually do anything but show up to dress up events anymore, this gala is pretty much the top of their existences. As you can see, Mary Kate dressed to the occasion with her best glossy gold 70’s muumuu; and Ashley used it as an excuse to show off her smoking preteen body in this slinky black number with sex-tegically placed cuts.
