Naomi Campbell wears the Mouawad Mondera 60.19 carat diamond worth $12,000,000 at the Julien MacDonald fashion show.
Naomi Campbell opened the Julien MacDonald fashion show wearing an a white JM gown and one of the rarest diamonds in the world--the 60.19-carat D flawless MOUAWAD MONDERA. Not unused to dripping in thousands worth of baubles one could tell that even Naomi seemed in awe.
As she was trying it on the fear of wearing such a valuable diamond was apparent as Naomi enquired about the insurance of such a rare stone. But being the professional supermodel she is, Naomi positioned it perfectly and with one
last pout in the mirror strutted out looking like a million dollars
--or should we say $12 million.
Mondera and top British fashion designer Julien McDonald
teamed up to create one of the most glamorous fashion shows.
Usually encased behind thick bulletproof glass, the $12 million
MOUAWAD MONDERA pear-cut diamond was the show's star attraction.
Both Julien and Mondera regularly adorn the world's most famous woman, including Liz Hurley, Kate Winslet, Britney Spears and recently Kylie Minogue for the MTV Awards in NYC, with Mondera supplying her stunning diamond jewellery.

So you may have heard of "Diamonds on the Soles of her Shoes" and "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds," but diamonds on the seams of her pantyhose? Hollywood goes nuts for diamonds during Oscar time, and there seems to be no limit to the unconventional ways that the precious gems pop up on the red carpet of the Academy Awards.
Diamond pantyhose, I suppose, are the ultimate luxury for the girl who has everything, and in this case we're talking about actress Melanie Griffith. Actually Ms. Griffith had good reason to wear the hose, because in exchange for the publicity, Hanes Hosiery made a $50,000 donation to the Roar Foundation/Shambala Preserve, an animal protection organization founded by Ms. Griffith's mother, actress Tippi Hedren.
Upping the ante in the diamond apparel category, talk show diva Leeza Gibbons wore a $100,000 diamond dress by noted fashion designer Pamela Dennis during the live broadcast. The dress is constructed in "flesh tone matte jersey," with 40 rows of diamonds set in platinum and draped down the bodice of the gown. While Ms Gibbons was unavailable for comment, one can only assume she places the utmost trust and confidence in her dry cleaner.
We all know how Hollywood-types love their wireless phones. Some of the new phones are so small they fit in your pocket. Others play music instead of ringing, or let you pick up your email and surf the web. That's yesterday's news. Mondera blew these would-be status symbols out of the water by teaming with Motorola to create a one-of-a-kind diamond edition of its new digital V. Series wireless phone for Hollywood's big night. Valued at $50,000, the 10 carat total weight diamond encrusted Motorola V. phone debuted during CNN's red carpet pre-show just before the Awards.
