Historic French fashion maison <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/haute-couture-schiaparelli-ai-2018">Schiaparelli</a> has donated two outfits worn by actress <a href="https://time.com/collection/100-most-influential-people-2019/5567860/regina-king/">Regina King</a>, including her most recent <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/oscars-2020-red-carpet-looks">red carpet</a> dress, to Christie&rsquo;s for a charity auction.
