"We are deeply honored to have worked with Iris and to celebrate her enduring fashion influence," said Veronica Alcaro, Zenni's VP of Brand. "The 'Iconic Elegance' collection reflects her remarkable personality, offering eyewear that captures her daring spirit and legendary style. As Iris always said, 'More is more, and less is a bore!'"

The new collection features more than 20 unique frames named to reflect Iris' dynamic style, including Apfel Allure, Soirée, Dare To Be, and Eccentric Edge. These frames embody Iris' maximalist magic with bold, vibrant, and unapologetically unique designs that celebrate her distinctive approach to fashion.

Lori Sale (Partner, Artist & Brand and Iris' Agent) said, "Iris's glasses were more than just an accessory; they were a statement and a signature that made her instantly recognizable as she was often celebrated as 'the fabulous woman with the glasses.' She loved working with Zenni on her collections. She always wanted to know if they were as happy with the partnership as she was. I assured her that they were. We are incredibly honored that Zenni continues to celebrate and preserve Iris's legacy through their ongoing collaboration."
