\n\tThe online auction<\/a>, titled \u201cMathilde and Friends in Paris,\u201d is scheduled to run from Monday to Feb. 4 and will feature clothing, jewelry and design objects from the PR maven\u2019s private collection, alongside items contributed by friends such as designer Julie de Libran, decorator Jacques Grange and cosmetics guru Terry de Gunzburg.<\/p>\n \n\tKey pieces will be on display in a public exhibition, designed by illustrator Tatiana de Nicolay, opening on Jan. 28 with a cocktail event.<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\tA selection of items from Mathilde Favier\u2019s home on sale at Christie\u2019s. <\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\u00a9 Christie\u2019s images Limited 2025<\/p>\n \n\tAs public relations director at Dior<\/a> Couture, Favier oversees VIP relations, putting her on first-name terms with everyone from Rihanna to Jennifer Lawrence. Thanks to her book, billed as the ultimate insider\u2019s guide to Paris, she has become something of a celebrity herself, with 236,000 followers on Instagram.<\/p>\n \n\tFavier\u2019s colorful interior is a Pinterest favorite, but having moved out of her English-style home in the 16th arrondissement, she felt ready to turn a page.<\/p>\n \n\tItems for sale include her sofa, estimated at 2,000 euros to 3,000 euros; a set of two Yoruba-style armchairs covered in beads; a Romanian carpet with a rose pattern, and a console made of patterned tiles.<\/p>\n \n\t\u201cMy new home doesn\u2019t match this decor, so I decided to get rid of it,\u201d she explained. \u201cI\u2019m letting go of things that made me incredibly happy and that I took great care of, because they were truly part of our family. Now I\u2019m passing them on, trusting they\u2019ll bring just as much joy in their next home.\u201d<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\tChanel haute couture by Karl Lagerfeld fall 1994. A black-and-white short cocktail dress with bows.<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\u00a9 Christie\u2019s images Limited 2025<\/p>\n \n\tBilled as a collection of \u201ccherished objects, iconic outfits, poetic talismans and unexpected treasures,\u201d the sale consists of 121 lots in total, of which 16 belong to Favier. <\/p>\n \n\t\u201cThey\u2019re calling it a sale of the soul,\u201d she said. \u201cBut there\u2019s nothing sad about it. From the start, it was fun, joyous and everything just flowed.\u201d<\/p>\n \n\tFavier\u2019s taste was shaped by growing up around women like interior designer Madeleine Castaing. The half-sister of Victoire de Castellane,\u00a0creative director of Dior jewelry<\/a>, Favier\u00a0has moved in fashion circles since her teens, when her uncle Gilles Dufour got her an internship at Chanel, where he worked alongside Karl Lagerfeld.<\/p>\n \n\tAmong the clothes she\u2019s putting up for sale is a Chanel haute couture cocktail dress with black bows, designed by Lagerfeld in 1995, and a John Galliano-era pink Dior<\/a> skirt suit she was gifted around the birth of her daughter H\u00e9lo\u00efse Agostinelli.<\/p>\n \n\tA pair of violet flower JAR earrings comes with a starting price of 3,000 euros to 5,000 euros. Favier says she stopped wearing big earrings when she got her now-signature pixie cut.<\/p>\n \n\tDe Libran has offered a white embroidered asymmetric evening gown trimmed with ostrich feathers that was worn by Amal Clooney in 2023 to the Cartier Women\u2019s Initiative Awards. \u00a0<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\tPierre Cardin shoes made by Carlos Penafiel, 1985. <\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\u00a9 Christie\u2019s images Limited 2025<\/p>\n \n\tGrange, who has helped Favier decorate several homes, contributed a pair of green glazed terra-cotta lamps he designed for the Galerie du Passage, run by his partner Pierre Passebon.<\/p>\n \n\tThe sale includes oddities such as a leather jacket worn on stage by rocker Johnny Halliday; Surrealist leather shoes with molded toes created by Chilean-born sculptor Carlos Pe\u00f1afiel for Pierre Cardin, and a Claude Lalanne sculpture of a butterfly alighting on a mouse. \u00a0<\/p>\n![\"A](\"https:\/\/wwd.com\/wp-content\/themes\/vip\/pmc-wwd-2021\/assets\/public\/lazyload-fallback.gif\")
