"More is more and less is a bore."In 2005 she became the first living person who wasn’t a designer to have her clothing and accessories made into an exhibit at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The exhibit was called "Rara Avis (Rare Bird): The Irreverent Iris Apfel". Iris has also had a documentary made about her. Oh, and she even has her own emojis. Released a couple of years ago, Iris didn't quite understand the hype although she was none the less pleased:
"I’m a little old for emojis and I didn’t know what they were, but everyone seems to like them, and I want everyone to have a good time. "If my face makes people happy, I’m all for it."With her signature oversized glasses, red lips and snow-white hair, Iris proves standing out is often better than fitting in.
