Although Karl Lagerfeld is remembered as a prolific designer who led collections at Chanel, Fendi, and his own labels, he often ventured beyond fashion, creating furniture, art, and even cars. His personal collection reflects this multi-hyphen approach. Lagerfeld is a renowned collector of art in all its forms and the new auction from Sotheby's offers a rare glimpse into his one-of-a-kind eclectic world. Part one of the Karl Lagerfeld property sale is held in Monaco from December 3 to 5 (part two will be held in Paris on December 14 and 15). It features more than 1,000 lots from Lagerfeld's residences in France and Monaco, including a portrait of the designer by Takashi Murakami, a scrapbook created by Lagerfeld himself, and a telegram from Marlene Dietrich. It is worth noting that many of the lots in the sale were priced much higher than their estimated price, a testament to his indelible legacy. The things that paid the most were the cars that Lagerfeld once owned. The best-selling item was a black 2018 Rolls-Royce Phantom, which sold for 436,000 euros. In second place is a 2019 Rolls-Royce Cullinan Bleu for 369,450 euros, while a 2017 Rolls-Royce Phantom Dropped Coupé Grise costs 375,500 euros.
Lagerfeld-owned artworks are also among the best-selling items in the sale. A portrait of designer Murakami costs 289,800 euros, while another portrait of designer Gianni Versace sells for 94,500 euros. Items that provide a glimpse into Lagerfeld's creative process and mind are also particularly desirable. Three inspirational scrapbooks he created in the mid-1980s sold for 151,200 euros. Filled with photos, sketches, and notes, they are a fascinating document of the artist at work. Santa Joe Biden Merry Somethin’ Christmas Sweater Shirt! Two of Lagerfeld's work binders, with scraps of paper dating from the 1950s, are worth 189,000 euros. Collectors also can't wait to own a piece of Lagerfeld's wardrobe. The designer is known for wearing black coats, and the sale includes a variety of styles by Yves Saint Laurent and Dior Homme. Five other Chanel lambskin gloves signed by Lagerfeld circa 2000 sold for 47,880 euros. Two years after his death, it is clear that Lagerfeld's influence still lingers and that serious collectors now want a piece of fashion history through his vast estate. Each piece is essentially a memento, representing his enduring love for fine art and design. And with the end of the sale looming, the bidding will likely only intensify.
