Iris Apfel, age 99, is a self-described "geriatric starlet." Her iconic style and infectious joie de vivre are an inspiration. In 2005, the Costume Institute of the Metropolitan Museum of Art staged an exhibition of her clothing and accessories, making her the first living woman who was NOT a fashion designer to be so honored.
