There she is at New York Fashion Week, our German Iris Klein. With tight leather leggings, 15 centimeter high platform high heels and bright red lips.
It was YOUR weekend! Daniela Katzenberger’s mother Iris, proud 56 years old, mother of three. The German designer Pia Bolte (46) booked her as a catwalk model for her show.
Small really big! Klein could be the mother of most of her New York model colleagues, and even the grandmother of some. So what? Iris wears her age (along with her newly operated breasts) with pride. That’s right!
But how does Iris Klein fit in here? And how did this gig even come about?
In the BILD interview, Pia Bolte, who is also worn by stars like Bill Kaulitz (34) and Beatrice Egli (35), explained in July: “Iris fits the Big Apple perfectly. She takes life lightly and is a real buddy type. You can’t be squeamish in New York. Iris impressed me with her looks. She has such a great figure and is a real eye-catcher.”

As Iris recently revealed on Instagram, she has modeled before – and hasn’t forgotten anything, as she showed in New York. She even received cheers from the audience for her walk on pink mega pumps.
At the end of the show, designer Pia Bolte came onto the catwalk with her model Iris Klein and was celebrated for her new collection
That’s what the cat says about mom’s modeling job
What does Iris’ even more famous daughter Daniela Katzenberger say about the model comeback?
The cat to BILD: “I thought my mother’s appearance was simply great. I really wanted her to do that and I encouraged her a lot during the decision-making phase and pushed her. Simply because I noticed that her image suffered a lot because of the thing with Peter.”
A terribly nice (and crazy) family: Daniela Katzenberger with her husband Lucas Cordalis (56) and mom Iris Klein (56)
Daniela and her mom, no leaf fits between them!
Daniela continues: “Suddenly mom was the black Peter, even though SHE wasn’t cheating! That was so unfair. Unfortunately, Mom has put a lot of obstacles in her way because of her short fuse and her temper. That’s why something positive and courageous had to come from her now. The fact that she’s marching down a New York catwalk with her head held high and in such a good mood is just super cool and I’m incredibly proud of Muddi!”
The cat adds with a laugh: “Besides, her new silicone breasts have finally gotten a taste of New York air!”
