The 33-year-old woman arriving in Rome from Sao Paulo in Brazil was wearing tight-fitting clothes to enhance her voluptuousness, hoping that her looks might distract the attention of border police, ANSA news agency reported.
The report said the woman drew suspicion however after giving unclear answers to questions about the reasons for her trip to Italy to an officer. The discovery was made when two female investigators conducted a strip search.
Smuggling methods through Rome's Fiumicino airport have become ever more ingenious, including cocaine found hidden inside baggage trolleys last year.
In June, police arrested traffickers who were smuggling 220 kilograms of cocaine hidden in crates of chalk statues shipped through Fiumicino.
In November, a drug gang which smuggled cocaine into Europe disguised as Manolo Blahnik shoes has been busted in northern Spain.
The traffickers moulded the class A drug into the shape of designer shoes and gave them to airline passengers to bring into Spain from Colombia.
The designer brand usually commands a price tag of several thousand pounds for stiletto marvels made famous by Sex in the City's Carrie Bradshaw.
But the smugglers' version, created from cocaine paste, had a street value of around 50,000 euros a pair.
