Society should emphasize pers...

Society should emphasize personality. Accomplishment. Interest. Intelligent things. I think everybody should look as good as possible too.

Iris Apfel 89 quotes

You have to observe a few sim...

You have to observe a few simple rules in dressing, which are really not rules; it's just being appropriate. If you're 70 and want to wear miniskirts, 70-year-old knees ain't pretty!

Iris Apfel 89 quotes

I think fashion is just part ...

I think fashion is just part of my life and if it hadn't been fashion then it would have been something else.

Iris Apfel 89 quotes

The woman should learn who sh...

The woman should learn who she is and what she looks like and try to find the best points of dress accordingly. I also think that being appropriate has gone out of fashion. There are appropriate times to wear appropriate kinds of clothes.

Iris Apfel 89 quotes

I think fashion today is horr...

I think fashion today is horrible. Just open your eyes and look! What's good about it? There's no originality. Here and there, there is, but in general, en masse, there's very little creativity and very little originality. It's kind of boring. Everybody looks alike. Everybody seems to strive to look alike.

I used to collect frames. I've been collecting accessories since I was 11-years-old, creeping around flea markets and sales and everything. Whenever I saw unusual eyeglass frames, I bought them.

You can't just say, "I'm gonn...

You can't just say, "I'm gonna have style." You have to work at it. It's intuitive; some people have it, and some people can work on it all day long, and it will never happen.

Iris Apfel 89 quotes

I think you're born with styl...

I think you're born with style, but you have to develop it. You can be born with the talent to be an opera star, but you've got to work and practice it.

Iris Apfel 89 quotes

I think being appropriate is ...

I think being appropriate is what you have to do. I think these trend things are terrible, like 'Ten Things You Must Have.' Why must you have them? They're a 'must' for some people, but for some they're not. It's silly. Again, it's all a matter of knowing who you are. You'll never run out of ideas once you do. But it's hard work and some people don't want to put in the time or effort. So they don't. And that's their issue. I don't sit in judgment on how they look.

Iris Apfel 89 quotes

I don't spend my life getting...

I don't spend my life getting dressed! I have to put clothes on during the day; I don't get dressed up at all when I'm working. I'll wear jeans, or something very simple.

Iris Apfel 89 quotes

I'm delighted that gay people want to get married and I say why not! It's nobody's business and I would happily give my blessing.

Iris Apfel 89 quotes

Everything that's happened to...

Everything that's happened to me, nothing's been planned. I've never had a business plan. I just kind of fell into it, and I liked it, and I took a chance. I took a lot of chances in my life.

My mother worshipped at the altar of the accessory.

Iris Apfel 89 quotes

When you're older, no matter ...

When you're older, no matter how good your humor is you don't always feel perky and peppy. But if you sit home all day and brood about it, it gets worse.

I don't have any rules, because I would only be breaking them, so it's a waste of time

Iris Apfel 89 quotes

I just never want to completely grow up.

Iris Apfel 89 quotes

I do have a dominant shopping...

I do have a dominant shopping gene but, unlike a reasonable person, I never plan for what I need each season. I enjoy the thrill of the hunt, the discovery and the endless search. In another creation I was, perhaps, a hunter/gatherer. After all these years, I’ve learned that it’s not the end result or finished product but the process I most enjoy. If my experimenting, searching and juxtaposing turns into an exciting outfit well, it’s just a big fat bonus!

Iris Apfel 89 quotes

I'm a color person, I've never been known to play it safe. Plus I like big bags. My eyeglasses are so big; they don't fit into smaller bags.

Humor is important in everything. Dress with a little humor and you can go a long way.

Iris Apfel 89 quotes

If you don’t learn constantly...

If you don’t learn constantly, you don’t grow and you will wither. Too many people wither on the vine. Sure, it gets a little harder as you get older, but new experiences and new challenges keep it fresh.
