Featuring over 200 pieces of fashion, accessories, and design from 1921-2024, Christie’s dedicates an auction to one of America’s biggest style-makers, Iris Apfel.
With “Unapologetically Iris: The collection of iris Apfel,” Christie’s has dedicated an online auction celebrating one of America’s most iconic style-makers. Featuring over 200 pieces of fashion, accessories, and design from the collection of Iris Apfel, (1921-2024), this online sale showcases a gorgeous passion for extravagance.
“She had an inimitable style, an unrivalled eyewear collection, and unfailing joie de vivre. She’s still an example for all women, a woman who worked hard and succeeded in her personal life—70 years of an apparently happy marriage,” explains Camille de Foresta, Parisian curator, and auctioneer at Christie’s. “A gift for putting beauty and joy everywhere, absolute chic in eccentricity and eclecticism, you can see in the collection that in her clothes or in her interior she mixes with mastery, humor, and luxury designer pieces and vintage pieces. I love this mix. And her gift for staging, too: every photo shoot in which she appears is a delight.”
