Mary-Kate Olsen has hinted that she could be making her own wedding dress. The fashion designer, who got engaged to her 44-year-old boyfriend Olivier Sarkozy earlier this year, seemed far from pinning down her ideas but made a small revelation. "I'm, like, not even there yet," she said. "I think it may be a matter of getting five or six, or making two or three and being stressed out. That seems kind of far away. We'll take one step at a time."

Mary-Kate Olsen said she could be choosing between up to six wedding dresses

Mary-Kate, 27, was speaking shortly after her younger sister Elizabeth confirmed her own engagement to her actor boyfriend of two years Boyd Holbrook. It looks like the two brides-to-be haven't got far with their wedding planning, as just a few weeks ago Elizabeth confessed that she was a laid-back bride and "relaxed about it". When asked about whether she had picked a wedding date and whether it would coincide with her big sister Mary-Kate, Elizabeth said, "No, I just told her she gets to pick a date first!"

As the twins are known for their distinctive style, it'll be no surprise if Mary-Kate opts for a "boho chic" look on her big day, given her penchant for vintage-style clothing.

Her fiancé Olivier, who is the half brother of former French president Nicolas Sarkozy, certainly knew this as he proposed with an intricate Cartier diamond and sapphire ring, which featured a four-carat central diamond flanked by 16 sapphires. Fashion watchers around the world have been predicting what Mary-Kate could wear on her big day, which could include traits from her everyday style such as high necklines, long, billowing sleeves and elegant, flowing skirts.
