Throwbacks are always fun but this one has a wow factor that is hard to beat. In 2013, South African supermodel Candice Swanepoel walked the ramp for Victoria's Secret in a crystal-encrusted lingerie set. The diva wore a majestic gemstone-encrusted lingerie set, costing a whopping 10 million dollars (approximately Rs.83 crores), according to reports by CBS News. The lingerie bralette came with a bow and a matching belt and had over 4200 precious crystals including gems like diamonds, sapphires and rubies delicately encrusted in it which made it sparkle like the stars. The red bikini bottom was paired with a matching crystal-encrusted belt. Candice wore a pair of deep red heels as she walked the ramp. She also wore a pair of long white gloves and opted for shimmery rosy makeup with loosely styled wavy tresses as she carried her style effortlessly. When Candice sashayed across the ramp in this royal set back in 2013, she was even guarded by security personnel stationed nearby to protect the expensive gemstones on the set.
