If I’m ever disappointed about anything, just thinking about Iris makes me feel inspired again. Her existence has changed the way people think about fashion, and about themselves in the meantime. I hope to be like her ASAP, not just once I’m her age. -Tim Noakes, Dazed & Confused editor
When you don’t dress like everybody else, you don’t have to think like everybody else. -Iris Apfel
Dazed & Confused Novemeber 2012 issue
Featuring// Iris Apfel
Photographer// Jeff Bark
Styling// Robbie Spencer
For the Dazed & Confused Novemeber 2012 issue, Jeff Bark photographed 91-year old fashion guru, Iris Apfel. Shot in Apfel’s Manhattan home, stylist Robbie Spencer and photographer Jeff Bark’s channel Apfel’s “zen-meets-baroque style” in this alluring editorial. This eclectic fashion icon has ‘dressed the rooms of nine Presidents, played mother, grandmother and great-grandmother to successive generations of designers and advanced the cause of dressing-as-art more than almost anyone else alive.’
Now let’s just hope when I am 91 I can pull off Rei Kawakubo’s 2D A/W 12 collection for Comme des Garçons as well as she can!

beautiful work! posters for posterity!2
I like it. And it grabbed your attention esp. if you posted a comment below. whether you love it or hate I don't see anything where it promotes violence or degrading women.. what i see is government taking away the rights of a citizen n the rights away from people. Failure to follow instructions will land us in prison like the model. Now if steven photographed the same concept with average shmucks would we pay much attention to it? i dont think so. it'd be just another political journalistic photograph.3
