Our culture puts a lot of pressure on the idea that a woman's self-worth is defined by her looks. It's just awful. And they also put a tremendous premier on youth, which is so, so debilitating and upsetting to so many women. I don't know why they're so dopey. Seriously. I don't see any problem with that and if you do, you should celebrate it. Don't chop your face up.
Iris ApfelI don't believe in rules. It's different for everybody. Everyone has to make their own decision and find out what's comfortable for them.
Iris ApfelIf you're over 60, arms are not pretty, so I think you should stay covered up. But wear what's appropriate for what you're doing, how you live, and what your lifestyle is.
Iris ApfelI think fashion today is horrible. Just open your eyes and look! What's good about it? There's no originality. Here and there, there is, but in general, en masse, there's very little creativity and very little originality. It's kind of boring. Everybody looks alike. Everybody seems to strive to look alike.
Iris ApfelI'm delighted that gay people want to get married and I say why not! It's nobody's business and I would happily give my blessing.
Iris ApfelYou donโt have to look like an old fuddy-duddy, but I believe it was Chanel who said, โNothing makes a woman look so old as trying desperately hard to look youngโ. I think you can be attractive at any age. I think trying to look like a spring chicken when youโre not makes you look ridiculous.
