Where would you auction off a diamond shirt? Where else but the Middle East? The $1.4 million diamond-studded top which was
shown on the runway during Milan Fashion Week last February
will go on the auction block in Dubai in December. The top was created with the late fashion designer Gianfranco Ferré and diamond company and DTC sightholder Dalumi.The top has more than 900 diamonds stitched along a sheer black vest. The over 300 carats of diamonds are of G color and VS or higher clarity and are set in white gold studs. One dedicated employee hand stitched each diamond on the shirt. No details have been released about the auction but I would love to see some of the proceeds go to charity,

That's a great way to wear a lot of diamonds. Quite beautiful, but I wonder, is it comfortable? Oh, that's right, who cares? :)

Actually, I've heard it looks quite trashy up close and probably not comfortable at all. Who comes up with these ideas anyway?

Diamonds are women's best friend provided affordable.It is no doubt heavenly jewel a mere five word long on a stretched body of all times sparkle forever.Reminds of famous film of James bond, "diamonds are forever".
