Doris Brynner was remembered Wednesday as an ebullient, driven and magnetic woman, whose smile could light up a room.

The longtime doyenne of Dior‘s homewares department beamed out from a Luc Castel portrait propped on an easel at Église Saint-Philippe-du-Roule, a Catholic church, its altar laden with huge floral arrangements in white and pink — two colors she loved to wear.

Diane von Furstenberg, Stephen Jones, Zac Posen, Victoire de Castellane and Camille Miceli were among designers who attended the requiem mass, along with a smattering of Brynner’s famous friends, including opera singer Plácido Domingo and motor racing legend Jackie Stewart.

Delphine and Antoine Arnault, Sidney Toledano and Olivier Bialobos were among the LVMH brass in attendance, along with a slice of Europe’s beau monde: Marie-Chantal of Greece, Stavros Niarchos III, Georgina Brandolini, Betty Catroux, Jaime de Marichalar, Jacques Grange and Pierre Passebon.

In a testimonial, French author Jean-Gabriel Mitterrand rattled off a few more of the famous folk in Brynner’s vast orbit, including Elizabeth Taylor, Frank Sinatra and Audrey Hepburn, whose graphic designer son Luca Dotti attended the service.

A widow of the Russian actor Yul Brynner and a woman with a nonpareil flair for decorating and entertaining, Brynner died Feb. 1 in Lausanne, Switzerland, at age 93.

Earlier in her career, she did modeling, worked at Pierre Cardin upon her arrival in France in the ’50s from Chile, and later at Valentino, taking charge of special client relations at the Roman couture house.

In his testimonial, Toledano recounted the days when he was running Christian Dior in the late ’90s when American architect Peter Marino suggested he conscript Brynner to zhuzh up the brand’s giftware department.

Toledano described Brynner as a woman of impeccable taste, boundless energy and very strong opinions, bringing her daring yet lighthearted approach to tableware, picture frames, wicker baskets and candles.

The religious service unfurled in French and English, with snippets of Spanish and Italian, too. Singers performed two versions of “Ave Maria,” while the exit music, played on the church organ, was “My Way.”

Brynner’s daughter Victoria read a snippet of Søren Kierkegaard that also expressed her mother’s determination and grit — along with her dedication to clean and healthy living. “I have walked myself into my best thoughts, and I know of no thought so burdensome that one cannot walk away from it…. Thus if one just keeps on walking, everything will be all right.”
