Bring out your inner Olivia Pope with new Scandal-inspired fashion line

Many ladies around the world fell in love with Scandal's Olivia Pope, the strong and determined crisis manager who runs her own firm, Pope & Associates, one that specialises in dealing with messy situations (especially scandals involving politicians, duh!) in the US political drama TV series.

She's the lady that most woman probably aspire to be.

How do you start becoming Liv? First, you've got to dress the part.

US online shopping site The Limited has created a Scandal range selling Olivia Pope-inspired looks - some even mimicking exactly what Kerri Washington's character wears on the show.

The Pope-inspired collection was launched on Tuesday (Sept 23). 

Ladies can now dress the part for US$228 (S$289), Time reported. Yes, that includes the Liv plaid cape too.

The Limited's chief executive Diane Ellis told The New York Times that research on the store's typical shopper showed that "Kerry Washington came up in the top three of celebrities she looks to, along with Jennifer Aniston and Sandra Bullock".

Ladies, are you ready to be the next Olivia Pope of your company?
