The Single Most Expensive Suit in the World
Written by: jeremy Filed Under: Fashion, World on April 24th, 2009
Luxury designer Alexander Amosu, whose London-based design house is mostly known for gem-studded phones and accessories, has done something a little different this year—he’s created the world’s single most expensive suit.
The fabric of the 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, and qiviut, luxury 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 has already been sold to an anonymous buyer for an equally fantastic price of £70,000—over US $100,000.

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….
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..
