MANILA, Philippines - The angels took the stage clad in wings, million-dollar bras and the latest collection of the world’s most famous lingerie brand, Victoria’s Secret, in New York City during the annual Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show.
The hour-long spectacular event featured the drop-dead gorgeous angels Miranda Kerr, Lindsey Ellingson, Hilary Rhoda, Barbara Palvin, Cameron Russell, Candice Swanepoel, Joan Smalls, Sharam Diniz, Alessandra Ambrosio, Adriana Lima, Maud Welzen, Shanina Shaik, Jasmine Tookes, Toni Garrn, Erin Heatherton, Izabel Goulart, Bregje Heinen and many more. The show was bolstered with performances by Rihanna, Justin Bieber and Bruno Mars.
Just like every Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, the event’s crowning point was the unveiling of the latest Fantasy Bra where one of the beautiful angel models stepped out wearing a jewel-encrusted brassiere. This year, the glamorous wearer was Ambrosio, wearing a $2.5M piece called the Floral Fantasy.
The 2012 Floral Fantasy bra designed by Jersey-based London Jewelers was constructed out of 400 jewels which included pink, white and yellow diamonds, rubies, sapphires and other semi-precious stones, with a 20-carat white diamond in the center. Ambrosio donned the jewel-heavy piece with a spread of orchids on her back.
