Ashley, Mary-Kate Olsen 'Elle UK' Covers Are So Gorgeous, We Can't Pick A Favorite (PHOTOS, POLL)

Sound the alert, people: the Olsens are here!!

An overreaction, we know, but we do love these twins. The famous twin designers (yes, they've finally earned the title sans the "former child stars, turned..." prefix) cover Elle UK's April 2012 issue, styled by Anne-Marie Curtis in the season's most popular (in magazines, at least) looks.

For her cover, Ashley wears a dress version of Dolce & Gabbana's ubiquitous jewel-encrusted bodysuit, while MK poses in a jewel-encrusted white blouse.

Inside, the Elizabeth & James and The Row designers get the usual treatment, i.e. a large feature about their growth and ambition as serious fashion designers. The twins, writes Elle UK, seek to "carve a career path that rivals Tom Ford's."

Bold words... but never say never with this powerhouse duo. After all, they do boast a $1 billion empire. Is there anything they can't do?

Check out the two pics. Seeing as there are two covers for one issue and the girls are twins, we feel obligated to ask: which cover strikes your fancy?

CORRECTION: A previous version of this article presented two Ashley covers, mistaking one for Mary-Kate (twins are a tricky thing...). We've updated with the correct photos and designer credits.

Quick Poll

The best 'Elle UK' April '12 cover is...

They're not gorgeous, they look unreal. Hungry. Pale. Malnurished. FEED them.

Mary Kate looks more natural & healthy. She could of gotten knocked out by
drugs like Heath Ledger, she lucked out.

I'd pick MK's had there not been the halo of light around her eye and forehead.... why didn't they make it symmetrical like the rest of the photo? I like both outfits... MK's make up more than Ashley's but I love the color on her dress and surprisingly we see curves on her! I don't understand when editors choose only neutral outfits for the covers... like Blake's horrendous Elle cover look... barf.

I'm so sick of bony, protruding cheekbones, and ghastly eye makeup trying to tell me that a model is supposed to look like a sad, ghoulish waif.

Put some juicy curves on your fashion rag and maybe people will start buying them again.

Also, is it so d*** hard to smile?
