Every year, since 1996, Victoria’s Secret has chosen one model to wear a very expensive ‘Fantasy Bra’ down the runway at their annual show.
This year, that bra is named the “Dream Angels” bra, and will be worn by Elsa Hosk on November 8.
Following this, a version of the bra will be available for purchase.
As is tradition, the bra and the model have been revealed two days prior to the runway show.
Here’s Business Insider:
The 2018 Fantasy Bra is made of 2,100 Atelier Swarovski-created diamonds and features a balconette design with thin spaghetti straps. A Swarovski-crystal-studded bra inspired by the $1 million (or R14,2 million) creation will be available for purchase from Victoria’s Secret starting November 29.
And here I thought regular bra shopping was expensive. This thing knocks it out of the park.
This bra isn’t even the most expensive bra to grace the runway.
In 2001, for example, Heidi Klum wore a $12.5 million (roughly R175 million) bra covered in pink sapphires known as the “Heavenly Star” bra. To this day, it remains the most valuable bra in the world, according to Guinness World Records.
The bra took more than 930 hours to create. The entire piece has a total of 71 carats woven into it, reports NewsAU.
Elsa Hosk took to Instagram to express her happiness at being chosen for the job of wearing it.
Personally, finding a comfortable bra is up there with my wildest dreams, along with pockets on women’s clothing.
While the bra is very pretty, it looks hella uncomfortable.
If you want your own very expensive shiny bra, you can buy a replica version of the “Dream Angels” from Victoria’s Secret stores from November 29.
