What a difference a few years makes, Bruni looks glamourous in a Dior suit celebrating Bastille Day in 2008
In 2011, Bruni-Sarkozy nabbed a spot on the Vanity Fair International Best-Dressed List alongside Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge. In the span of a year, Bruni ditched the parade of Dior and dazzling designer ensembles of the early years of her political life. At a campaign appearance a few days after Sarkozy announced his bid for re-election, Bruni appeared in a loose-fitting sweater and boxy jacket.
