Iris Apfel - "Rare Bird of Fashion"

The October 8,2009 Boston Globe G section has an interesting article by Christopher Muther about Iris Apfel and her fantastic fashion collection. The show of a lifetime's collection of clothing, jewelry and other accessories will open at the Peabody Essex Museum in Salem , Ma. Her skill is combining diverse fashion items to make a work of art. She used expensive designer clothes, handmade designer necklaces as well as blue jeans and other inexpensive items. In an interview with the Peabody Museum Editorial Director, Lisa Kosan, she said she liked "architectural clothes so I can embellish them myself."
