Angel Marisa Miller to Wear Victoria's Secret Diamond Bra
It's the time of the year we've all been waiting for: when Victoria's Secret reveals its one of a kind diamond bra. So, here it is. The model chosen to wear the diamond bra is Angel Marisa Miller. Angel will wear the $3 million bra which is covered in diamonds from Damiani. Sadly, the recession appears to have hit the diamond bra business quite hard. In 2006 the diamond bra was covered in $5.6 million in diamonds.
Angel dished to People magazine about the experience of wearing the Fantasy Bra.
"The diamonds are in a harlequin pattern and contain white, champagne and cognac colored diamonds. There is also a 16-carat heart shaped champagne diamond pendant dangling in the middle." And the supermodel continues, this is one case of not having to suffer for beauty. "It is surprisingly comfortable," she says, "because the Damiani diamonds are embroidered onto the VS Very Sexy Convertible bra -- which is actually one of my favorites."
The Victoria's Secret fashion show, which is such a special part of so many families' holidays celebrations, will air on CBS on Tuesday, December 1st at 10:00 p.m. Eastern. The Black Eyed Peas will perform and Doutzen Kroes, Miranda Kerr and Alessandra Ambrosio will all walk the catwalk in their underwear.

Karolina Kurkova and the $6.5 Million Diamond Bra
Karolina Kurkova models the new Victoria's Secret Hearts On Fire Diamond Fantasy Bra, which was created by Hearts On Fire, the company that has a special way of cutting diamonds to give them more fire. The bra which was created for the 2006 Holiday Collection features 2,000 individually cut diamonds weighing 800 carats. In the center of the bra is a 10 carat Hearts On Fire diamond brooch with a Victorian floral motif.
Victoria's Secret Angel Karolina Kurkova models this year's Hearts On Fire Diamond fantasy bra which will be featured in the 2006 Victoria's Secret Christmas Dreams and Fantasies catalogue, arriving in mailboxes in mid-October and then worn in the Victoria's Secret fashion show.
"We are looking forward to seeing our diamond bra in action on the runway -- with 2000 perfectly cut Hearts On Fire diamonds under the lights. It's a good thing that the fashion show is in LA where no one leaves home without their sunglasses," says Bart Marks, VP of Marketing for Hearts On Fire.
The Hearts On Fire diamonds in the Fantasy Bra required over 20,000 hours of labor to perfectly cut and polish, while the bra itself took more than 300 man hours to fabricate. This is the second creative project that Hearts On Fire has taken on -- in 2002 Hearts On Fire created a $5 million diamond dress for the Oscars.
The bra is valued at $6.5 million and would make a lovely, practical gift for the supermodel in your life.
