Globe-trotting style icon Iris Apfel is quite literally decades ahead of today’s most veteran fashion influencers. She’s been immortalized as a Barbie, starred in a documentary and lent her larger-than-life wardrobe to the Met’s Costume Institute — and the New York-bred centenarian model is celebrating her 100th birthday with a highly-anticipated collection with H&M.

Launching online and in select stores in the U.S. and Canada tomorrow, the Iris Apfel x H&M collection ($30 to $400) encapsulates the Old World Weavers founder’s statement-making aesthetic influenced by her global travels and love for bold textiles and textures. (Apfel launched the luxury textile firm of global antique-inspired fabrics in 1950.)

Naturally, the vibrant 38-piece capsule includes a jacquard appliquéd blazer and matching trousers, maximalist floral patterned blouses and maxi dresses, a violet frilled tulle jacket, oversized fringe shackets and pants, ruffled tiered tunics, co-ord rib knit tops and shorts, decadent black kaftans and a swimsuit with a “100” graphic that nods to Apfel’s iconic round glasses, to name a few.

Rounding out the collection are eye-popping footwear and accessories ($35 to $199), such as embellished brocade shoes, whimsical peapod and floral clip-on earrings, chunky chain bracelets, playful frog brooches, chain necklaces with detachable beetle pendants, oversized enamel bangles and more.

Pieces are also made with sustainable fabrics and materials, such as Lenzing Ecovero viscose (a fiber derived from wood and pulp) and recycled polyester, zinc, brass and polyamide.

In a statement, the fashion maven says, “I think H&M is fabulous and is an absolute pioneer in its field — which I love! I love doing high style at affordable prices, which H&M has mastered.”

Adds H&M womenswear creative advisor Ann-Sofie Johansson, “H&M was drawn to work with Iris because of her famously eclectic taste and her influence within the fashion community. She epitomizes personal style — a style that is both beautifully flamboyant and eclectic as well as totally ageless. She shows what fashion is all about: it’s a means of expressing yourself, who you are or want to be and a way to have fun. She’s a true inspiration.”

Apfel, who turned 100 last year, once told The Hollywood Reporter, “You really do have to live every day as if it’s your last. And one day you’ll be right.” If her latest fashion collection is any indication, her style will continue to live on in years to come.

The collection will be available at four H&M stores, including in Los Angeles’ Westfield Century City shopping center, Chicago, Miami and the Fifth Avenue flagship in New York.
