From child actresses to award-winning fashion designers, the Olsen twins have always known how to rock a look

Starting their successful careers as&nbsp;one-year-olds,&nbsp;everyone&#39;s favourite twins, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, have been style icons from the very beginning.

The actresses rose to fame as they doubled up playing Michelle Tanner on&nbsp;Full House, and continued inspiring kids everywhere as they took their twindom to stardom on the big screen, solving a few mysteries in their own book series along the way.

While the inseparable sisters may not be acting anymore, their fashion&nbsp;influence lives on&nbsp;through their high-end womenswear brand, The Row, and on the red carpet.

Here are some of the twins&#39; best looks through the years.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Full House Promo, 1993

Mary-Kate and Ashley&nbsp;have been known to take&nbsp;twinning to the next level, as demonstrated here as&nbsp;they pose in their adorable floral&nbsp;overalls.&nbsp;&nbsp;

&nbsp;

It Takes Two Premiere, 1995

While supermodels like Bella Hadid and Kendall Jenner rock tiny sunglasses today, here is photographic evidence that&nbsp;Mary-Kate and Ashley&nbsp;invented the trend way back, while also modelling powerful&nbsp;matching sets. Paco Rabanne SS19, anyone?

Premiere of Alaska, 1996

These classic &#39;90s &#39;fits show just how versatile the Olsen twins can be. With those&nbsp;Blossom-inspired hats, Mary-Kate and Ashley demonstrate once again their knack for predicting the biggest&nbsp;trends of this decade.&nbsp;&nbsp;

&nbsp;

ABC&#39;s Fall Kickoff, 1998

With their matching hair clips and platform wedges, we&#39;re just glad the twins colour coded their slip dresses for the night and made it a little easier for us to tell them apart (fun fact: they&#39;re actually fraternal twins, not identical).

&nbsp;

Premiere of Anna and the King, 1999

Only the Olsen Twins could rock what seem&nbsp;to be pashminas as skirts and cardigans&nbsp;to the premiere of this Jodie Foster flick. Still, with their&nbsp;strappy shoes and &#39;90s &#39;dos, this&nbsp;stylish duo prove they&#39;ve mastered the subtle art of&nbsp;coordination.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Our Lips Are Sealed, 2000

Reminiscent of Yves Saint Laurent&#39;s seminal Mondrian dresses of the&nbsp;&#39;60s, Mary-Kate and Ashley flaunt their fashion prowess in front of the Sydney Opera House for one of their wildly popular films,&nbsp;Our Lips Are Sealed.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Winning London, 2001

Perhaps the beginning of the twins&#39;&nbsp;boho chic era, the Olsens layer it up in these &#39;70s-inspired looks, which are perfect for that&nbsp;chilly London weather.

&nbsp;

New York Minute, 2004

8.jpeg

Possibly everyone&#39;s favourite MK &amp; Ashley movie,&nbsp;New York Minute&nbsp;was an eclectic collection of early noughties trends, where&nbsp;the Olsen twins proved&nbsp;they could&nbsp;rock any style.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Hollywood Walk of Fame, 2004

Moving beyond their twinning period, Mary-Kate and Ashley received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2004, which also appears to be the start of their enigmatic&nbsp;smiles for the paparazzi.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Met Gala, 2005

10.jpg

This was the Olsen twins&#39; first appearance at the Met Gala, and their looks have only gotten more iconic (and eccentric) with&nbsp;every&nbsp;year. Here, the twins develop their individual styles as Mary-Kate rocked auburn tresses&nbsp;and a vintage boho gown, while Ashley stunned&nbsp;in an Oscar de la Renta dress and blonde, beachy waves.

&nbsp;

Tribute to Tim Burton at the MoMA, 2009

11.jpg

In honor of the recent viral images of Mary-Kate&nbsp;and Ashley&nbsp;&quot;mistreating&quot; their Birkins, we had to honour just how long this uber stylish pair has been rocking the legendary bag&nbsp;in black, natch.

&nbsp;

Fashion&#39;s Night Out in 2009

12.jpeg

Making a successful career switch for one night, Mary-Kate and Ashley drew a huge crowd at Fashion&#39;s (First) Night Out as they tended the bar. What could be more stylish than showing off their skills?

&nbsp;

Opening of Le Compte Ory, 2011

13.jpg

Majorly chic in YSL at the&nbsp;opening of the opera Le Comte Ory&nbsp;in New York, Mary-Kate and Ashley have come a long way&nbsp;from their bright, matchy-matchy&nbsp;outfits of the 1990s.

&nbsp;

CFDA Awards, 2012

14.jpeg

Six years after founding their luxury label,&nbsp;The Row, Mary-Kate and Ashley took home the prestigious CFDA award for Womenswear Designer of the Year. While the twins rock totally different styles here, we love seeing their classic&nbsp;tight-knit twin pose again.

&nbsp;

Met Gala, 2017

15.jpeg

While these intricately styled looks may not have fit the Met Gala&#39;s theme that&nbsp;year, which honoured Rei Kawakubo and Comme des Gar&ccedil;ons, they were unabashedly&nbsp;eclectic in these dramatic outfits, marking a complete style evolution for the twins. Could you imagine the Olsens wearing these back in the day? Neither could we.

&nbsp;

Street Style, 2017

16.jpeg

Clad in head-to-toe&nbsp;neutrals, the Olsens step out carrying to-go coffee cups, which have since become a staple accessory in their&nbsp;everyday wardrobe.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Met Gala, 2019

17.jpg

Their outfits may not exactly be&nbsp;&quot;camp&quot;, but they certainly are unique to Mary-Kate and Ashley&#39;s now-signature dark, minimalist style.&nbsp;&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Street Style, 2020

18.jpeg

Always expertly bundled up&nbsp;for the NYC weather, this classic&nbsp;street style moment came just a few weeks before we all entered lockdown. Hopefully the twins will grace us with their sense of chic again soon.
