Mary-Kate Olsen Wore the Coat Trend You're About to See at Every Holiday Party
Forever fashion icon Mary-Kate Olsen is known for favoring oversize styles, so we were pleasantly surprised to see The Row designer in a structured velvet overcoat. The rich burgundy is also a departure from the New York resident's typical palette, which typically skews toward black, gray, and neutral hues.
Of course, when luxurious velvet items appear on shelves, we know the holidays are just around the corner. In fact, Olsen's coat is ideal for bouncing between holiday events while staying warm and festive, and we have a feeling fashionable partygoers will be channeling this look all month long.
If you're into the idea of being enveloped in velvet for your next night out this season, then you're in luck. We've found some lovely velvet coats and jackets and even a cape that will help take your look to the next level, including a piece that's absolutely MKO approved.
