Earlier this month, Daphne Guinness announced that she would auction off pieces from her extensive wardrobe to raise funds for The Isabella Blow Foundation. Last night at Christie’s in London, Guinness did just that — and sold all 102 lots for nearly $600,000.
It was believed Guinness’s items would sell for about $125,000 total, the Daily Telegraph reports. That’s nothing, considering that those lots contained gowns from Alexander McQueen and Christian Lacroix and photographs by Mario Testino. The night’s biggest lot was a portrait of Guinness lensed by Testino for British Vogue in 2008, which fetched around $166,000.
