Iris Apfel | Born 1921
$1.5 Million – Park Avenue, New York

Fashion icon and interior designer Iris Apfel is perhaps one of the oldest on this list. She has worked with her husband in the textile industries, with a contract in the White House that spanned nine presidents. This has been a lucrative business for them, and they did not even have to get a business loan. Just to show how powerful and persistent this woman is, he even signed with IMG as a model at the age of 97.

What do we expect then from her house? Well, that it should be a fashion house. To that, Apfel did not disappoint. Her apartment in the posh Park Avenue section of New York is nothing but a place of fashion. The three-bedroom apartment is estimated to be worth at least $1.5 million, but with the contents, which include a collection of singerie, an English chair, and an 18th-century Venetian bombe chest, the property’s value would definitely be higher.
