be wearing one of the most expensive ever made
"They had to mold my body to be able to make [the bra], and I was
really excited," Swanepoel tells PEOPLE. "I tried to imagine after
they'd done the mold, how would they make it, how it would look. My
imagination didn't do it justice. My favorite part is this beautiful
52-carat pear-shaped ruby. Every part of it is exquisite."

have to handle it with a lot of care!"
The South African supermodel says that while it wasn't hard for her to
keep her big announcement under wraps ("I want it to be a big
surprise!" she says),
