Carla Bruni comments on Samantha Cameron's "maverick style"

June 27, 2010

(TELEGRAPH.CO.UK)  “Aristocratic but bohemian, practitioner of yoga and close to the ecological cause, this mother of three has retained from her youth a dolphin tattoo.

“A maverick style for a woman who, when questioned about her husband, does not hesitate to speak not only of his good qualities but also of the minor failings of everyday life.”

Mrs Bruni-Sarkozy and her husband, Nicolas Sarkozy, met up with the Camerons earlier this month to commemorate General Charles de Gaulle’s 1940 radio broadcast to Nazi-occupied France.

While Mrs Cameron, who is six months pregnant, appeared in an understated black and white dress, Mrs Bruni-Sarkozy wore a £970 Christian Dior shift and £500 Christian Louboutin kitten heels.

It is not be the first time that Mrs Bruni-Sarkozy has commented on a British Prime Minister’s wife.

Last year Sarah Brown was depicted in a pencil drawing on the site with straggly hair, a grin and an oddly shaped ear.

In a comment on social networking site Twitter, Mrs Brown wrote: “bit bemused by illustration of me.”
