Graduated as an auctioneer in 2015, Lucile Best began her career at Sotheby’s, working across the Inventory and Furniture & Works of Art departments. She later specialized in fashion, leather goods and jewellery upon joining Vestiaire Collective's Expertise Department.

There, she notably expanded the sales of high-end leather goods and vintage luggage in France and internationally.
