Karl Lagerfeld was a mega-collector. Of high-collared white shirts (1,000). Of books (300,000). Of period decor (art deco, Memphis Group, 18th-century European). And of homes – at least 20, in Europe and in New York.

“He loved buying, redesigning and decorating houses,” said Sebastien Jondeau, the longtime assistant and bodyguard of the fashion designer, who died in 2019 at age 85.
