Which Victoria's Secret Angel Is Wearing This Year's $10 Million Fantasy Bra?
Want to know what $10 million underwear looks like? Following the footsteps of supermodels like Heidi Klum, Tyra Banks and Alessandra Ambrosio, Victoria's Secret Angel Candice Swanepoel will wear the line's annual "Fantasy Bra" creation for this year's Victoria's Secret fashion show, People reported.
Swanepoel will wear one of the most expensive ever made due to the fact that it has an enormous ruby at the center panel.
"They had to mold my body to be able to make [the bra], and I was really excited," Swanepoel told PEOPLE. "I tried to imagine after they'd done the mold, how would they make it, how it would look. My imagination didn't do it justice. My favorite part is this beautiful 52-carat pear-shaped ruby. Every part of it is exquisite."
In order to create the fantasy bra with the matching belt, the jeweler had to hand-set more than 4,200 precious stones that includes rubies, diamonds and yellow sapphires in 18-karat gold.
"I've never worn anything this pricey, and we have to put gloves on when we put it on," Swanepoel shared. "It's kind of a big ordeal. The bra comes with two bodyguards and we have to handle it with a lot of care!"The supermodel said that it was not that hard for her to keep her big announcement under wraps, she said it will be harder to keep her cool when walking in the catwalk. "Definitely being the Fantasy Bra model is more nerve-wracking [than shooting swim] because it's a one-time thing," she said.
"Walking around wearing $10 million does seem to make me a little bit nervous."
