They’re both queens of the catwalk and are no doubt used to commanding attention wherever they go. But it was a case of battle of the supermodels as Adriana Lima and Karolina Kurkova rocked the red carpet at the launch of Swiss luxury watch brand IWC Schaffhausen’s new timepiece, Aquatimer, in Geneva on Tuesday night.
Positively dazzling as they arrived at the gala event for the 2014 Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie, the two statuesque beauties both opted for dramatic plunging gowns, featuring rather daring thigh-high splits.
Leading the way, Adriana opted for a classic LBD with a very sexy twist.
Although her choice of gown featured long sleeves and a floor-length hem, the Brazilian bombshell made sure to flash her fair share of flesh by opting for a number that was cut to both the navel and dangerously high up her thigh. Wearing her long raven locks slicked back from her face, the 32-year-old model injected a bold pop of colour to her look with a slick of pillar-box red lipstick, while adoring her decolletage with a stunning, glittering diamond necklace.
Victoria’s Secret Angel Adriana completed her red carpet look with a pair of navy blue killer heels and of course, an envy-inducing watch. Giving Adriana a run for her money, Karolina also opted for a plunging, thigh-split gown for the star-studded occasion. Commanding attention in a glittering gold sequin number, the Czech beauty preserved a little more modesty by having a sheer overlay cover up her cleavage a little.
Featuring dramatic metallic embellishment, Karolina’s striking gown was slit all the way up her thigh, and the 29-year-old model accentuated her seemingly endless legs even further with a pair of gold skyscraper heels. Wearing a luxury watch on her wrist, Karolina completed her look by wearing her blonde locks parted to the side and poker straight, while opting for rouge lips and low-key dewy make-up.
While the catwalk queens certainly commanded attention on the red carpet, they were by no means the only celebrity faces to attend the watch event.
