YOU’s fashion director Shelly Vella gives you a sneak peek into the upcoming Iris Apfel x H&M collaboration.
Iris Apfel, the 100-year-old style icon, is famous for her trademark glasses, piles of accessories and bold fashion choices. She has inspired young and old alike to be more confident when it comes to getting dressed. This month sees the launch of her collaboration with H&M and it doesn’t disappoint. Think bright, delightfully quirky on-trend pieces that work cross-generationally and still tick the wearability box.

Iris says
‘The collection offers some marvellous pieces that can be used as building blocks for people exploring their personal style. I don’t want people to dress like me and I don’t want people to think like me – that’s not the idea. I want people to think for themselves, to find the colours, cuts, accessories and combinations that work for them, to use their imaginations, to wear what they love. You should be your own style icon.’
