High Heels To Break the Bank


Women all over the world love collecting girly things like high heels, perfume, rings, bags and dresses, but imagine if you could collect the most desired item in each of these categories? Here we take a look at some of the most outrageously priced things a woman could ever hope to find in her wardrobe cupboard...

Dressed to kill

Naturally one of the most expensive dresses ever was worn on the Red Carpet in Hollywood. Samantha Mumba wore the Scott Henshall creation to the premier of Spiderman 2. The dress, fitted with 3000 diamonds, cost about R57 million. The most expensive and sparkly wedding dress in the world was worn by Renee Strauss. The dress, adorned with 150 carats worth of diamonds, cost about R84 million.

Priceless toes

Any man with a wife who likes Stuart Weitzman shoes is pretty much guaranteed to go bankrupt if he doesn't rake in billions. Weitzman is responsible for creating some of the most expensive heels known to man. One pair, which was inspired by the shoes worn in Wizard of Oz, was put on display in Harrods in 2003. The shoes, adorned with more than 600 rubies, had a price tag of more than R7 million. Another pair, which Mullholland Drive actress Laura Harring wore to the Oscars, is covered in more than 400 diamonds and comes with a price tag of more than R7 million too.

Brilliant bag ladies

Spectacular ladies handbags are always in high demand, but none as much as the Hermes Birkin bag which was sold for about R13 million in 2008. Made of platinum, the versatile bag is adorned with more than 2000 diamonds while the strap can be removed and used as a necklace or bracelet. Some of the most coveted bags in the world come from the Hermes design label. Possibly better known, but equally as desirable, is the Louis Vuitton range of bags. One of their most notable creations is the Louis Vuitton Tribute Patchwork bag, which is made out of 15 samples of other Louis Vuitton bags. The bag was launched in 2007 and sold out almost immediately, at a price of more than R300 000 each.

Desirable rings

The king of all rings has to be the Chopard Blue Diamond Ring, which has been valued at more than R117 million. The 18 carat white gold band is covered in diamonds and set with a huge blue diamond, which is one of the most expensive stones in the world. Another of their pricey offerings comes in at more than R14 million. The cocktail ring with half moon diamond shoulders is finished off with a 33 carat solitaire diamond on a platinum band.

Priceless smells

A bottle of Clive Christian's Imperial Majesty perfume will set you back about R1.5 million a bottle. Each bottle, of which only ten were ever produced, is encrusted with a white diamonds and gold.

Why would anyone want to wear something that costs more than a small island to insure? The bottom line is that anyone willing to pay for items like these probably doesn't care too much about the price in the first place (except for bragging purposes). It might seem desirable to be able to purchase items like these but remember ladies, heels do not make the woman!
