Iris Apfel - Little People Big Dreams
She may not be pretty, but she has style, that's what her fellow students said about Iris when she studied art history in New York. Even as a child, she experienced the fascination of fashion and design in her parents' boutique. She self-confidently embodied this fascination with beauty from an early age. And made it her job. As a journalist, author, model, exhibition organizer and advisor to nine presidents, she brought color, shine and flair to the White House as an interior designer. Style is not a question of age; the now 102-year-old style icon still lives and works according to this motto.
