Book excerpt: At 94, Iris Apfel is having the time of her life. Having made her name as an interior designer (she worked with the wives of nine presidents on the White House) and fashion icon, she's in demand as a model and her legions of fans love her 'unsugared truths'. Voted one of the Best Dressed over 50's by The Guardian, Apfel is Manhattan's oldest and coolest It girl and star of documentary Iris by filmmaker Albert Maysles, which offers a unique perspective into the delightful life of a style legend. On Love: "I always say my husband has given me all the space I need, except in the closet." On Individuality: "When you don't dress like everybody else, you don't have to think like everybody else." On Growing Older: "Getting older ain't for sissies, I'll tell you." On New York: "To lead the good life in New York, the two most important things for a woman are a chauffeur and a fur-lined raincoat." On Style: "Fashion you can buy, but style you possess" "If your hair is done properly and you're wearing good shoes, you can get away with anything." Iris' best quotes and life wisdom have been compiled here for your delectation and inspiration.
