While many people think of bras primarily as functional clothing, apparently they can also be vehicles for high fashion. Or at least fashion that would make even Jacob the Jeweler blush. Black Book did some clever accounting of just how much good will some of the hottest celebrity bras could do, and the results are shocking.
That $5 million black diamond fantasy miracle bra, for instance, could feed 100,000 starving African children for a year, pay for 1,333,333 efficient light bulbs, plant 714,285 apple trees through the Arbor Day Foundation or buy 263 hybrid cars. One note: while the colorful charts list the efficient light bulbs as "LEDs," they look like CFLs, and at $3.75 each are more likely the cheaper technology. Still, we get the idea!
It's not easy to think of more outlandish symbols of consumption ran rampant than jewel-encrused under garments!
