Six signature ways China’s first lady fashions diplomacy
Peng Liyuan’s wardrobe choice steals the spotlight every time she makes a public appearance
We take a look at China’s first lady and the former folklore singer’s most glamorous style moments to date.
The elegant uniform
Subtle and polished- it seems Peng’s go-to look is a structural jacket worn over thigh high boots, as the China first lady wore during a tour of the Forbidden City in Beijing on November 9.
She swaps the boots for a pair of elegant single sole pumps as she and Melania enjoyed a cultural performance during a visit to Banchang Primary School later that day. She embraced a similar silhouette for the state dinner as well by matching a sheer embroidered mandarin collar dress over a burgundy slip dress and accessorised with blcak pumps, a tiny clutch and pearl earrings.
Something blue
It seems that blue is one of Peng’s favourite colours. She appeared in multiple occasions in blue outfits, from the modern embroidered qipao at the G20 Summit in Australia to the mandarin dress and cocoon coat ensemble she wore during her visit to the UK.
