Released to co-incide with Iris Apfel’s 100th birthday, the new H&M x Iris Apfel collaboration is one for the maximalist dressers amongst us. Based on the personal style of Iris Apfel, the famous New York socialite and creative, who came to life for so many through her eponymous documentary Iris (2014), it’s perhaps the high street giant’s most outlandish collaboration yet. 

Think clashing patterns, printed two pieces, hyper-real florals and plenty of accessories. Already being touted as a favourite is a jaunty aquamarine suit embroidered with delicate garden pea vines (the peas are iridescent pearls), as well as a fuzzy cropped jacket in forest green. Even the loungewear is extra – theatrical swirls mingle with bold and bright kaftans.

Spot the Iris Apfel x H&M collaboration in the fashion shoot of the March issue of THE GLOSS & The Mix, on shelf now. 

The accessories are sure to please true Iris devotees. There’s resin cuffs, charm necklaces and OTT rings. Several of the pendants can be unclipped as worn as brooches à la Iris, too. Shop our picks from the collection, which launches online and in store at H&M’s flagship at College Green, on March 31.
