Being part of the glamm industry has its pros and cons. But do you know what the biggest pro is? Celebs literally get to dress up for a million bucks! It is common to see big names in Bollywood and Hollywood don outfits worth thousands, but sometimes these outfits are worth millions. Gold and diamonds are no longer just accessories; they are a whole wardrobe! Let’s take a look at stars who wore outfits that were literally made of real gold and diamonds.
Beyoncé
Beyoncé recently made the entire Toronto shimmer as she performed onstage at her Renaissance World Tour wearing a dress made of real diamonds! Since Tiffany & Co, is the official jeweller of the singer’s world tour, they literally made an entire dress for the diva. The barely-there outfit looked like a bejewelled version of the “naked dress.”
Her world tour isn’t the first time Queen Bey has donned herself in diamonds. For an iconic photoshoot for her album cover in 2003, she wore a see-through top that was made with nothing but diamonds. She wore this legendary top with a pair of denim jeans! Fun fact? She borrowed these jeans from the photographer since her team forgot to bring denims for the shoot. Simply iconic!
Taylor Swift
We best believe Taylor Swift is still bejewelled and when she walks in a room, she can make the whole place shimmer! But do you know Taylor hinted at her famous song Bejewelled in the music video of Look What You Made Me Do? In the video, the singer is seen wearing nothing but diamonds and laying in a bathtub filled with countless jewels. Well, turns out all the precious stones were real! The look and the set-up was estimated to be a cool $10 million!
Kriti Sanon
While Adipurush may have been a disappointment at the box office, Kriti Sanon‘s promotional looks for the film were anything but. For one look, she chose a bespoke double-draped saree custom-made by Abu Jani & Sandeep Khosla. The Kerala cotton saree took inspiration from the purity of Sita. It was adorned in 24-carat gold Khadi block print, and the blouse came decked in tamba (copper) tikki flowers and emeralds!
Sonam Kapoor
Recently, Sonam Kapoor attended the Indian Global Forum in London and as usual, she came through with her OOTD. She wore a regal drape by Pankaj S Heritage who is known to revive the rich legacy of Indian textiles. The saree was embroidered with real silver and gold wires along with 108 colours of resham, in Srinagar. Beautiful, right?
Well, these celebrities have proven that diamonds and gold just don’t belong on the neck. *cries poor tears*
