You are wrong if you think that only revealing and trendy silhouettes gets an invitation to undergo a blingy treatment and within no time evolve in their shining new avatar. Whilst Triumph Luxurious Diamond Thong layered with countless diamonds may seem a confrontation to my argument but the news about World’s Most Expensive Abaya, a traditional form of Islamic dress stands high to defend it. Abaya, the simplest form of dressing accepted by Islamic religion was picked by British couture designer Bruce Oldfield. The bejeweled Abaya features 4,668 diamonds weighing 359.7 grams of white gold. Bruce in association with Crosley Diamonds based in London has unveiled this luxury called World’s Most Expensive Abaya.
They say the deluxe Abaya is expected to be sold off at The Gulf Luxury Trade falling coming month for $350,000. The sales generated would be donated towards the relief charity “Islamic Relief.†Popularly known electronic violinist and former model Linzi Stoppard is the proud foremost person to don it.
