NEW YORK (GaeaTimes.com)- Brazilian model Adriana Lima hogged the limelight earlier this week when she flaunted a jewel-encrusted bra in New York City that is worth a whopping $2 million! Victoria’s Secret Angel surely seized many eye-balls from men and women alike as she adorned the dazzling underwear over a satin gown which was cutaway to showcase the bra. It does not come as a surprise that the supermodel had to be guarded with a high-profile security team given the fact that the lingerie consists of 142 carats of white diamonds, sapphires as well as topazes.
The diamond-encrusted bra is the latest offering of the lingerie company Victoria’s Secret and the underwear has been designed in association with Italian jeweler Damiani. All over, the bra comprises of as many as 3,000 expensive stones and is reported to have been made by six craftsmen who tirelessly worked for 1,500 hours to finish the incredible work. While talking about the one-of-a-kind bra, Adriana Lima said that it is really a work of art which is indeed very special but definitely not flashy. At the same time, the 29-year-old supermodel also emphasized that although the lingerie is embedded with so many jewels, it is also very comfortable to wear.
The jewel-encrusted bra was modeled by Adriana Lima in New York City on Wednesday to launch the new holiday collection of the lingerie company Victoria’s Secret. Unveiling a luxury bra has become a novelty event that is held every year to promote the latest collection of the company. In 2009, the Harlequin Fantasy bra was unveiled that was made of 150 carats of jewels and had a price tag of $3 million.
