I will not suggest anyone to wear second hand lingerie for the risk of contracting skin infections but when it comes to a celebrity lingerie, it becomes a collector’s item. And the star whose used-lingerie has the largest demand the world over is none other than the Material Girl of the glam world – Madonna. Believe it or not but in April 2001, the black satin Jean-Paul Gaultier conical bra that the pop diva wore in Blond Ambition fetched ₤14,000 in Christie’s, London. In the same year, Sotheby’s auctioned her Who’s That Girl Tour gold tasseled bra for $20,550. Looking at the windfall gain possible by selling iconic lingerie, investment companies are on a celebrity-lingerie collection spree. UK’s Marquee Capital Limited in fact owns over 125 undergarments worn by Madonna. If you are planning a new investment opportunity, how about including spending some portion of your money on lingerie worn by the demi-goddesses of Hollywood?
