"I always dress for myself. I don't care what anybody thinks! I'm not a rebel and I don't do these things to shock anybody. Frankly, I don't give a damn." Iris Apfel

It's that kind of attitude that has served Iris Apfel well over the course of her career. Although not a designer, Iris began her journey at Women's Wear Daily where her sense of style and fashion was embraced worldwide. The subject of books, museum exhibitions and even a documentary, Iris Apfel's take on fashion and interior design has cemented her status in the BoF 500.
