Little People, Big Dreams - Iris Apfel

Growing up in Queens, New York, little Iris was the only child at family events. Her grandmother would open a giant bag of fabric, filled with every colour and pattern, and let her play with fabric scraps. This inspired a lifelong love of fashion. Famous for her eclectic style, built around oversized glasses, bright colours, and bold jewellery, Iris was the subject of an exhibit at the Metropolitan Museum of Art when she was just 84 years young.

This inspiring book features stylish and quirky illustrations and extra facts at the back, including a biographical timeline with historical photos and a detailed profile of the "geriatric starlet's" life.
