Mathilde Favier is a Dior executive and global celebrity director of the house. She has just published her first book, a tribute to the French capital and her famous Parisian friends.
Among them are the interior designer Jacques Grange and the antique dealer Pierre Passebon. Favier herself recognizes that she is privileged and that she has been lucky in life. She was born into a wealthy family whose motto was “we are not rich enough to skimp,” who served butter on a silver platter. The book is written in French and English and is already being translated into Chinese, Korean and Japanese. It is a small sample of the impressive agenda that the author has, but it is also a slit to spy on the fabulous universe of the Faviers, a long dynasty of businessmen. The author says: “I don't think so much about money, but about having your own taste of luxury. For me, the greatest luxuries are simplicity and beauty.”
