Published on 04/08/10

Elizabeth Taylor will wear a diamond-encrusted turban worth $3 million at her upcoming wedding to longtime companion Jason Winters, according to reports.

The bridal crown, made partially from platinum, was designed by Keith Holman and is adorned with a 30-carat center stone and two 40-carat, round, yellow canary diamonds.

Holman told BANG Showbiz that he is working with jeweler Christian Tse from Pasadena, California to make the turban and a team of 12 artists are working on the piece, which is being handwoven from silver and gold fabric.

Holman is also designing Taylor's wedding dress, an extravagant kaftan to match the luxurious headwear.
