Fashion News: Miranda Kerr previews Victoria’s Secret $2.5-million bra
Victoria’s Secret angel Miranda Kerr gave a preview of the handmade, $ 2.5-million bra that she will wear during next month’s Victoria’s Secret catwalk extravaganza. The bra (shown on a mannequin — most people will have to wait until the show, slated to air Nov. 29 on CBS, to see Kerr model it) reportedly took a London jeweler 500 hours to hand-sew on 3,400 gems — including diamonds, pearls, citrines and aquamarines. It also has a tassel centerpiece adorned with two 8-carat white diamonds and two yellow 14-carat diamonds. [Telegraph]
Fashionable First Lady Michelle Obama explained her wardrobe philosophy: “I have to wear what I love,” she said. “I have to feel good in it. My day-to-day wardrobe choices are very practical. I’m like, ‘What’s the temperature?’ ‘Am I going to be sitting in the grass?’ ‘Will I be playing with kids?’ ‘Can I sit on the floor?’” [People]

Everyone made a style statement at Vogue‘s Met Costume Institute Gala in New York Monday night, but the best accessory of the evening? A hot guy in a tux! Many of Hollywood’s style stars stepped out with their husbands and boyfriends, who dutifully took a backseat as their leading ladies shined in designer gowns. Co-chair Colin Firth accompanied wife Livia, who wore an eco-friendly Stella McCartney jumpsuit and skirt. New parents Miranda Kerr and Orlando Bloom almost looked wedding-ready, she in a white Marchesa mini, he in black tie. Fergie, also in Marchesa, was enveloped in lace — and in the arms of her hubby, Josh Duhamel. Gisele Bündchen, in Alexander McQueen (the night’s honoree), stood tall next to her longhaired husband, Tom Brady. Ryan Seacrest and girlfriend Julianne Hough coordinated, both wearing Burberry. And Beyoncé, in Emilio Pucci, got some help walking up the stairs from white-tux-clad husband Jay-Z. We think they all looked fabulous, but want to know: who was your favorite?
