Karl Lagerfeld's Paris home up for auction

Karl Lagerfeld's Paris apartment will go up for auction with an indicative price of 5.3 million euros ($5.8 million), the notary responsible for the sale said Tuesday.

Located in a 17th-century building on Quai Voltaire, the three-bedroom apartment has views of the Seine and the Louvre Museum.

It will be auctioned at the Paris Chamber of Commerce and Industry on March 26.

The 260 m2 apartment has a 50 m2 dressing room and was completely renovated by Lagerfeld “in a futuristic style, with concrete floors and sandblasted glass sections,” notary Thomas Jousselin told AFP.

Lagerfeld, whose spectacular creations and shows for Chanel, Fendi and his own brand had a profound impact on the fashion world, lived there for about 10 years until his death in 2019, the notary said.
