'Scandal' star talks fashion, new line at The Limited

"Scandal" star Kerry Washington wants women to look as powerful and put together as her TV alter ego Olivia Pope. That's why the actress has put together a new clothing line that helps women channel their inner gladiator, without breaking the bank.

ABC7 News caught up with Washington Thursday morning and asked her -- what is the Olivia Pope aesthetic?

"It's funny you should ask," she said. "Because that's really what we've tried to bring to the masses with this line. We've tried to make it that any gladiator, any fan of the show, any woman out there, can into The Limited or go to Limited.com and figure out how to be her own version of a gladiator in a suit."

The fall Scandal collection includes 42 different looks and is available now at The Limited.
