Guess How Much The World’s Most Expensive Bra Costs!

Guess How Much The World’s Most Expensive Bra Costs!

Victoria’s Secret hosted its iconic fashion show on October 18, and it was definitely worth the wait. The event embraced inclusivity, featuring plus-size and trans models confidently strutting down the runway in sexy lingerie. While many of the show’s signature elements were still in place, such as the wings (though less over-the-top than in the past), one major element was missing – the Fantasy Bra. Is the show even complete without it?

ICYMI, it was in 1996 that the brand introduced its legendary Fantasy Bras – diamond-encrusted, ultra-luxe, bedazzled bras that have become an iconic part of the brand’s annual fashion show. But here’s a fun fact – these bras are multi-million-dollar creations that have become the most expensive bras in the world.

One of the most expensive bras out of these was the Red Hot Fantasy Bra, worn by Gisele Bündchen in 2000. Valued at $15 million, this bra holds the Guinness World Record for the most expensive piece of lingerie ever made. It featured 1,300 rubies and diamonds set in red satin.

Another incredibly expensive bra from the Fantasy Bra collection is the Heavenly Star Bra, modeled by Heidi Klum in 2001. Designed by jeweler Mouawad, this stunning piece was valued at $12.5 million and encrusted with 1,200 Sri Lankan pink sapphires, with a centerpiece 90-carat emerald-cut diamond.

The Origin

Each year, Victoria’s Secret unveils a new Fantasy Bra, adorned with precious gems, crafted by renowned jewelers, and modeled by one of their top Angels. The Fantasy Bra debuted in 1996, a year after the show’s debut, with the first one being the Million Dollar Miracle Bra worn by Claudia Schiffer. Since then, it has become a yearly tradition, with each new Fantasy Bra increasing in extravagance and price.

And in case you are wondering if anyone ever buys the bra then here’s your answer. Turns out that Most Fantasy Bras are never sold. They’re typically displayed in stores or at special events. However, there have been a few cases where private buyers purchased a Fantasy Bra as a collectible.
