Born as Iris Barrel in 1921, Apfel was brought up in Queens, New York. As a daughter of a successful small business owner, she studied art and art history before working as a copywriter for Women’s Wear Daily.
With her husband Carl, Apfel started a textile and fabric (纺织及织物) reproduction business in 1950. Her firm managed White House restoration projects for nine presidents, ranging from Harry Truman to Bill Clinton.
Known for her charming personality and deep devotion to work, Apfel became a late-in-life fashion influence through her unique style—featuring bushels of bracelets (手镯), piles of necklaces, and those unmistakably large, heavy-framed glasses.
Apfel’s star brightened as she aged. At 90, she was teaching at the University of Texas at Austin. At age 94, she was the subject of a well-reviewed documentary by Albert Maysles. At age 97, she became a professional fashion model, represented by a top agency, IMG. She modeled for Vogue Italia, Kate Spade and M.A.C, and at the time of her death, she held the record for being the oldest person to have a Barbie doll crafted in her likeness by Mattel. Her autobiography (自传), Iris Apfel: Accidental Icon, was published in 2018.

“She said, ‘I learned that if I don’t have to dress like everybody else, I do not have to think like everybody else,’” the designer recalled with joy. “And I thought, boy, if I could do that for a few people, I achieved something.”
“She became an inspiration for so many people,” jewellery designer Alexis Bittar said in a statement. “Through living her life on her own terms, it messaged to women that they don’t need to hide in the shadows as they age, and that they actually can continue to glow and get better at what they do and look like.”
