Film star Catherine Deneuve, who once told Madame Figaro she was “mad about shoes”, is putting 125 pairs of sandals, boots and pumps from her own wardrobe up for auction.

The shoes will go on sale in September in an online auction run by Champs-Élysées-based auction house Artcurial, with all of the proceeds going to a charity called Les Restos du Cœur. This organisation, set up by another famous French actor, Coluche, in 1985, provides food for people in need.
