Karl Lagerfeld - The man behind the icon
Following sales in Paris, Monaco and Cologne, this final session at Sotheby's Paris marks the final act in the dispersal of the designer's collection Karl Lagerfeld. More than just a couturier, Karl Lagerfeld was a polymorphous artist: visionary artistic director, designer, photographer, writer and passionate collector.
This auction offers privileged access to the designer's world, revealing his annotated sketches and personal objects, intimate fragments that bear witness to his genius and legacy.
Our teams helped to create this ephemeral exhibition with refinement and precision:
- Walls covered with restick, a repositionable adhesive that protects surfaces and can be removed without leaving marks

- Event signage for the exhibition
A fine tribute to the timeless legacy of Karl Lagerfeld in one of the most prestigious venues in the art market.
