Bored with necklaces, rings and bracelets? Harlette, an English Lingerie company established in 2005, has worked with Australia's Eskae Jeweller to create lingerie suspender clasps made of platinum hearts covered with diamonds. The luxury objet d'art made out of platinum and pave-set diamonds is a world first in lingerie and was awarded an innovation patent 2009100676 on Bastille day 14th July 2009. The piece has 135 diamonds for a bit of private sparkle.

Australian lingerie expert Naomi McGill specializes in elaborate pieces in silk with the finest trimmings. Handmade lace, silks, jewel-encrusted tulle, velvets marabou, ostrich and peacock feathers all combine to make pieces that are delicate, wearable art. The diamond clasps are sold with velvet suspender (garter) belts and cost approximately $15,000.

Harlette Luxury Lingerie also launched their custom clasps made out of silver, gold, rose gold and platinum during the Oscars week. The clasps are bespoke and require special custom orders. Each clasp is designed especially for the Harlette lingerie housecoats to match the first initial of the wearer or they can use the H clasp designed for Harlette.
