For 11 years, the world has been missing a fashion icon with a connection to politics. Since the death of Princess Diana, there hasn't been a woman who embodied style and elegance in the field of diplomacy.
Well, it seems that Diana's designer shoes have finally been filled.
The woman doing so is the First Lady of France, Carla Bruni. The Italian ex-model and singer wowed the UK when she accompanied President Nikolas Sarkozy on her first official state visit. The newspapers went crazy over the woman's beauty and began comparing her to both Diana and First Lady Jackie Kennedy.
The French First Lady has caused an international frenzy after her diplomatic success in the UK. Thousands of requests for interviews and visits have come for Carla after seeing how she handled her first taste of foreign success. Magazines have seen sale increases after they put her on the cover. Even auction house Christie's is getting on the Carla train. A naked photo of her taken during her supermodel days is up for sale, to benefit charity. The fashion house Christian Dior, who provided all of her outfits for the UK tour, has circulated her pictures as advertisements.
If the UK visit is any indication, the world better prepare for Carla Bruni!
