Sisters with a Shared Beauty Look: From
Kate and Pippa Middleton to the Olsens
and Beyond
by Ally Betker
In Carla Sozzani’s new memoir-meets-catalogue, 10 Corso Como: A to Z, the gallerist and former
fashion editor tells the story of her Milan superstore, from its conception in an old garage to its rise
to global stardom and its recent cross-continental expansion. Of course, her tale wouldn’t be
complete without the mention of her sister, Franca, the longtime editor-in-chief of Vogue
Italia, with whom she is often spotted. With their powerful presence, identical blonde waves, and
rigorously makeup-free faces, the pair could almost pass as twins—and they aren’t the only siblings
who share the same beauty sensibility. Good genes, a collective framework of references, and the
everyday bonds of sisterly affection have resulted in more than a few striking resemblances.
Over the years, the pressed debutante waves of Jacqueline and Lee Bouvier and the Gallic
charms of Catherine Deneuve and Françoise Dorléac have become iconic. More recently, it’s
been the swingy brunette manes of Kate and Pippa Middleton that have captured the world’s
attention. From Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen’s untamed brows and honey-colored hair to the
matching rumpled good looks of Charlotte Gainsbourg andLou Doillon, these sister duos prove
that beauty is all in the family.
