Iris Owen, better known online as Nectarine Girl, is a London-based content creator, writer and presenter known for her distinctive Y2K-inspired style, infectious humour and unapologetically joyful approach to everyday life. She studied Theatre at The BRIT School and has developed a varied career across both digital and traditional media.
Iris first gained a following online through her collection of vintage Juicy Couture tracksuits, which became a signature part of her instantly recognisable aesthetic and the foundation of her Nectarine Girl persona. Describing herself as “London’s most famous not-famous person”, she has since built a loyal and highly engaged audience through her candid and eccentric take on fashion, culture, relationships and life in the capital.
Her distinctive personality and colourful content has led to commercial partnerships with brands including Olay, MOTH Drinks, Vinted and Skechers. Iris also now works closely with Juicy Couture UK, bringing her long-standing connection to the brand full circle. She has written her popular ‘Life According to Nectarine Girl’ column for The Face and has appeared on iconic TV shows, including Made in Chelsea, This Morning, Eggheads and Blankety Blank.
In 2024, Iris became the subject of Nectarine, a photo zine created with photographer Rebecca Zephyr Thomas and published by IDEA, documenting her colourful world and unmistakable Y2K aesthetic. Her work and personality have since been featured by Dazed, i-D and Ralph, among others.
With her natural charisma, distinctive personal style and talent for finding humour in the everyday, Iris brings a uniquely entertaining perspective to everything she does.
