Coco Chanel may have reportedly said that you should take one thing off before leaving the house, we're paraphrasing a bit, but Iris Apfel proves that's not always necessary. In fact, the fashion icon was known and adored for her over-the-top ensembles that always involved several statement accessories. Sadly, Apfel is no longer with us, but now you can own a piece of her epic wardrobe courtesy of Christie's.
"Unapologetically Iris: The Collection of Iris Apfel" is an online auction featuring the icon's vast personal collection of archival fashion and accessories along with art and furniture from her homes in New York and Palm Beach. The lineup is like a timeline of her amazing life featuring more than 200 items, from a custom Christian Dior feathered coat to a colorful Carolina Herrera look she rocked for a photoshoot for Harper's Bazaar.
Mark your calendar because "Unapologetically Iris: The Collection of Iris Apfel" opens bidding on January 28 and lasts through February 13.
