“The fatal thing about chasing beauty is that it’s a grueling journey outside of yourself, and therefore can never be successful or satisfying because the target will always be a shape-shifting phantom and a mystery. There really is no external form of beauty for you to be at all costs. It is the internal and the invisible that is of value. True beauty is elusive and hidden somewhere in the fabric of your complex being, and everybody possesses it in his or her own way.”-Sabine Reichel

I have been a huge fan of Iris Apfel ever since I first saw the exhibition catalogue for her show at The Met. I have had the honor of working with her several times now and I’m constantly inspired by her incredible energy, wit, and creativity. I’m excited to share a brand new campaign I shot with Iris for Le Bon Marché. The iconic department store will be celebrating Iris with an exhibition of some of her favorite looks and a pop up store on display at Le Bon Marché Rive Gauche between Feb. 27-March 26.
