Iris Apfel's MAC Beauty for Style Birdies on Sale Jan. 5
/
MAC Cosmetics have announced their latest collaboration with 90-year-old Iris Apfel, a style superstar who defines the concept of Old Ladies Rebellion. Every bit the eccentric individualist, a woman old enough to be the great grandmother to young fashionistas will share her bold beauty formula of bright lipsticks, commanding attention nail lacquers and intense eye-shadows.
MAC says the range is ‘a colour collection inspired by a rare bird who has always been ahead of her time.
We just love the visual imagery of the MAC ad capturing Iris Apfel’s saucer-shaped eyeglasses. The collection takes a lead from the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s 2005 Rara Avis (Rare Bird) exhibit, naming the lipsticks Pink Pigeon, Diamond Dove and Scarlet Ibis. The Met writes that all of the items in that show have been pledged to the museum.
The MAC collection goes on sale Jan. 5.
