In a number of candid snapshots, Lily, 29, who gave birth to her daughter in June 2012, could be viewed donning the attractive bedazzled bra, which can be worth an impressive $2 million, before hitting a series of pleasure poses for the camera.
As 8 December draws near, we remind ourselves (and you) about what we’re looking forward to at the much-anticipated Victoria’s Secret show. Designed by Pascal Mouawad, the dazzling 2015 Fireworks Fantasy Bra and detachable belt is caked with over 6,500 precious gems, including diamonds blue topaz, yellow sapphires and pink quartz all set in 18-karat gold.
And as with any Victoria’s Secret event, preparation is involved leading up to the big day to get runway ready. The combined weight of all the precious stones together on the bra alone is just under 1,364 carats, according to sources.
Claudia Schiffer wore the first fantasy bra in 1996; and previous year, the famous lingerie brand made a decision to have not one, but two fantasy bras, worn by Adriana Lima and Alessandra Ambrosio.
Aldridge is taking her role seriously.
