This bra contains over 5,000 natural colored diamonds with a total weight of 501.46 carats hand set in 750 grams of 18 karat gold.
“This, there’s no fabric in it what so ever, it’s just solid gold,” he said.
He told reporters that it took 40 workers over three months to put together the pricey piece.
Aubrey, who named the bra after his wife, Rita, said that the unbelievable undergarment is a statement piece, whether worn or displayed.
“If you just have that much money, someone would want it to say ‘Oh, I have a $1 million bra,’ or some people would put it on display at their house or something, and some people, believe it or not, would actually want to wear it,” he said.
