I have been a huge fan of Iris Apfel ever since I first saw the exhibition catalogue for her show at The Met. I have had the honor of working with her several times now and I’m constantly inspired by her incredible energy, wit, and creativity. I’m excited to share a brand new campaign I shot with Iris for Le Bon Marché. The iconic department store will be celebrating Iris with an exhibition of some of her favorite looks and a pop up store on display at Le Bon Marché Rive Gauche between Feb. 27-March 26.

Iris Apfel Turns 92 Today, Hooray!!!!

I want to wish a very happy and healthy 92nd birthday to one of my favorite style icons and inspirations Iris Apfel. Everytime I visit Iris I come back home feeling more inspired and more curious about the world around me. She inspires us all to do more, learn more and be more. In her own words, ” More is more and less is a bore.” Happy Birthday  to New York’s most original, irreverent, and inspiring grand dame.

Iris Apfel and Mickey Mouse

Things are slowly picking up in New York City and there is a promise that power will be restored by tomorrow(Fingers Crossed). I haven’t been able to hit the streets much lately, but I am looking forward to posting some new street style shots and stories very soon. In the meantime I thought everyone would enjoy this photo of Iris and Mickey Mouse taken at her apartment in New York. Iris has always wanted a big stuffed Mickey Mouse and her husband finally bought one for her on her 90th birthday.

 Thank you to everyone for your continued concerns. I am happy to report that I have spoken and heard from many of the Advanced Style Ladies, including Iris, and they are all safe and have plenty of supplies.
