President Barack Obama is greeted by French first lady Carla Bruni-Sarkozy as French President Nicolas Sarkozy greets first lady Michelle Obama during an arrival ceremony at the Prefecture of Caen, northwestern France, Saturday, June 6, 2009.





So what are they wearing?
Bruni-Sarkozy's outfit, which also included a swingy black cashmere coat, was signed Christian Dior _ her favorite label. Also true to form, Mrs. Obama's dress was by Narciso Rodriguez (and Michael Kors coat), one of the stable of American designers she champions.

Britain's Daily Telegraph said photos of the two striding side-by-side on the red carpet at Saturday's commemorations were "surreally interchangeable with shots from a catwalk show. ... They could almost have been modeling some designers' collection named 'First Lady Spring 2009.'" [via HuffPo]
