EBAY’S PASSION FOR FASHION

In the first installment of eBay’s new content series Old School Meets New School, the idea of a generation gap is called into question as 24-year-old rapper Lil Yachty bonds with 100-year-old fashion icon Iris Apfel over their passion for luxury timepieces. The “odd couple” talk everything from Rolex and Audemars Piguet to start ups and innovators, subverting assumed differences of age, race, gender and culture in the energetic short piece.

Co-produced by HG Producers, Iris’ interview was filmed at a private residence in West Palm Beach, decorated with pops of bright whites and blues in the backdrop to accentuate the prop jewelry. Resident celebrities like Iris are a regular draw for commercial production, and this location kept her close to her home in Palm Beach. Check out the segment at youtube.com/watch?v=-PkTLrVy4V4.
