Nigo's auction hosted by Sotheby's finally took place in Hong Kong yesterday morning. As previously mentioned, the Japanese designer put some of his most prized possession up for sale. This included his famous dollar sign chain, Andy Warhol Campbell's Soup screen-prints from 1968, a few KAWS pieces, and some pretty incredible furniture by Jean Prouvé and Charlotte Perriand. There was even a pair of adidas Stan Smiths, a Goyard case with four pairs of Bape sneakers inside, Billionaire Boys Club luggage, and Louis Vuitton trunks. What else do you expect from Nigo, who's known to collect a few things?
