There’s a new footwear collaboration that just launched and it’s the perfect combination of luxurious style, comfort and sustainability. Late style icon Iris Apfel teamed up with Dr. Scholl’s for what would be her final fashion collaboration before her death earlier this year.
The seven-piece shoe collection just hit stores on August 21, and we have to tell you all about it. Known for styling lively prints, unique textures and bold accessories, the interior and fashion designer brought her passion for eye-catching pieces to life in a statement-making collection of clogs, mules and sneakers. According to a press release, Apfel said, “Fashion is about expressing who you are on that day or that moment.
I created this collection with Dr. Scholl’s to express myself – the many sides of my fashion personality. I hope you like them,” during the collaboration process in 2023.
She used touches of her everyday life as inspo for the collection. Apfel included prints from her archives and even named a mule named “Mr. Carl” in memory of her late husband because she said they reminded her of the shoes he’d wear in their apartment.
Along with stylish silhouettes, Apfel’s final fashion collaboration provides the comfort Dr. Scholl’s is known for. The shoes have sustainably sourced materials.
