Iris 2014 BDRip x264-playSD

Ninety-three year old Iris Apfel and several people in her personal and/or professional life talk about her current life in relation to all the things she's accomplished leading up to this point. Having worked in her past life as an interior designer, including having had some White House commissions, and as a fabric designer (largely recreating classic designs), she is arguably best known now as a fashion icon, her style, in her own words, not being pretty, but rather bold and brave, her iconic trademark being her set of strong, oversized circular eyeglasses. Those commenting on her talk about her blending the world of design, fashion and art. With one of the largest collection of costume couture pieces, she had a first of its kind display outlining her collection and thus her fashion sense at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, which led to subsequent similar displays. In terms of her personal life, she touches upon her longtime marriage to "older" Carl Apfel and how she views what she does in relation to her age. As she is in the twilight of her life, one of the questions becomes what will happen to her collections, which are crammed into several abodes and storage units, the individual pieces which may not be worth much in a purely economic sense, but which as a statement on her style as a collective are arguably priceless.
