Hot is out. Here come the Olson twins!

The style section of the Times has declared sexy unfashionable. Used to illustrate this is a picture of the Olson twins.

Seems everyone, the fashion icons that are (icon that is?) the Olson twins included, has decided that the hot new look for summer is...long sleeves, long skirts, turtlenecks, pretty much anything required by the stricter religions, but now even the secular are covering up, just to look hip.

Summer sure is an obnoxious time for the fashion world to order its followers to abandon their miniskirts and tank tops in favor of Olson-esque kaftans, or whatever the twins usually wear. I really have no idea, but their caption reads: "Ashley Olsen and Mary-Kate Olsen were never ones for showing skin." How disappointed that must make so very many older men if it is in fact true.
