WELCOME TO THE COLORFUL WORLD OF FASHION LEGEND,
IRIS APFEL.

Honor the legacy of the late style icon and revered educator, Iris Apfel, by embracing a piece of history with “IRIS The Coloring Book”. As a Visiting Professor at The University of Texas at Austin, Iris Apfel left an indelible mark on the Textiles and Apparel Program, inspiring students with her unique vision and passion for fashion since 2010.

For a decade, the UT in NYC Seminar and Conference flourished under her guidance, offering students unparalleled access to the fashion industry through her extensive network. Iris's legacy will continue as UT prepares students with exposure to leading designers, merchants, and retailers, gaining insight into the diverse career paths within the NYC fashion space.

"IRIS The Coloring Book" stands as a testament to her dedication and love for the UT community as the world’s only coloring book with Iris’s seal of approval. This passion project helps fund students' educational journeys with fashion in Manhattan. Conceived as a fundraiser, the book's proceeds are dedicated to supporting students, brought to life by a devoted team in Austin committed to preserving Iris's exceptional legacy.
