R. Jewels Diamond Edition
Luxury designer Stuart Hughes is at it again, this time in collaboration with Manchester tailor Richard Jewels. Rather than the gold-plated and diamond-encrusted gadgets Hughes is known for designing, this duo has created the most expensive suit in the world.
The R. Jewels Diamond Edition suit has 480 single cut diamonds, 0.5 carats each, studding the Cashmere wool and silk blend that makes up the rest of the suit. It is the flagship creation of the R. Jewels line of luxury suits that Mr. Jewels hopes will “not only capture the eyes but the hearts of the consumers.” The suit is the product of 600 man hours and only three will be made. It’s priced at £599,000 or just under US $900,000.
Alexander Amosu’s gold-threaded suit.
Alexander Amosu, whose London-based design house is also known for gem-studded phones and accessories, performed a similar feat in 2009. The fabric of his single-breasted suit is made from vicuña wool, the most expensive wool in the world due to its scarcity and stringent regulations on wool-gathering, as well as qiviut, wool made from the coats of muskoxen. It’s also threaded with 18-karat gold and its single button features pave set diamonds.
This fantastic suit took a total of 80 hours to make and was sold to an anonymous buyer for a price of £70,000—over US $100,000.

i most confess is the most beautiful suit i ever seen,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Just so the readers will know, it was I, Sir Ogletree Winthorp, who purchased and has since returned this fabulous failure of fashion. Nowhere on this suit is there a cleaning recommendation, so naturally it was tossed from the washer bin into the dryer and now, well lets just say it is the perfect fit for my kitty. Shame.
It was me…I am Anonymous. I am the buyer.And I bored wearing it. So if someone want this suit, just contact me….
im interested, is it still for sale?
I think paying this much for one suit is outrageous. I could’ve bought a house for what some people pay for material that could be sewn by my mother.
it would look alot better if it was white
I have an Oscar de La Renta that looks exactly like that for 2000 American
Wow, this suit looks great, and the people who are actually trying to make recommendations on how it should looks better are really starting to get annoying.
I think the suit is fantastic and i’m proud to be a nigerian.
Whoa! thats the most lovely body fitted designer suit I have ever seen. I beleive it worth it but as a Nigerian and an Igbo guy I would rather build a house,invest in real estate or donate the money to a Charity organisation to put smiles to peoples faces instead of buying a single suit which has little or no commercial value
Wow…. I pray i can put it on and be the first to test it…men It’s worth it..

You all are haters’. Why don’t you surpport the brother and appreciate his talent.
if it were a white man that made this, you will all appreciate him and give him thumbs up.
“Haters”
Some times we need to go out of the ordinary and see further than our nose. This guy thinks big and has to achieve big. Napoleon Hill said it. As a man thinketh so he is. Think of something that will mark ur generation and stand as tall as him. BLACKS HORRAAAYYY
It’s supparb, the cost of a suit is more than the sum of wedding a woman, 4rm all discovery it realy worth the price.
