93-year-old Iris Apfel is a cult figure on the New York fashion scene. The eccentric textiles designer has had influence in the fashion world for over 70 years, and she is well known for her over-the-top costume jewellery and large glasses. We get to see every aspect of her in this heartwarming documentary, and it introduces us to her personal life with her husband as well as highlighting just how much work she still does within many areas of the fashion world.

Told from her own perspective, but peppered with interviews from friends and colleagues, Apfel is endearingly honest about herself and her work, and she focuses on various aspects of her life. A truly engaging story about a very unique personality, it really is a very inspiring look at one woman's contribution to the New York fashion industry.
