Svetlana Medvedeva's Summer Style (PHOTOS, POLL)

  First Posted: 08/26/10 03:01 PM ET   Updated: 05/25/11 06:25 PM ET

Svetlana Medvedeva, wife of Russia's President Dmitry Medvedev, has had a busy summer, accompanying her husband to the G20 summit and on trips to the United States, Turkey and Denmark. Sticking to simply cut suits and sheath dresses, Medvedeva relies on glossy patterns and a few flashes of color to keep things bright on the road. Take a look and tell us what you think.

I'm no expert (and I'm certainly not invested), but isn't a covered head inconsistent with bare arms?

I'm so glad to see someone else thinks she looks like an older Chelsea Clinton...

OK, so Светлана knows some good attire, but I wonder how Russia's Ð¿ÐµÑ€Ð²Ð°Ñ Ð»ÐµÐ´Ð¸ would look in:

Just a thought.

Middle-aged Chelsea Clinton? Maybe?

She looks like the Late Princess Margaret when she was alive and well, younger. :-P

In some respects, and I do see it, but Maggie was very petite. She was also something of a virago although a very good mimic. Hopefully this lady is slightly less vitriolic.

I think she is lovely, but that a new bra would do wonders for her. Hoist the girls!

Actually, it's kind of nice how Sveta lets the girls hang loose.

I've learned from experience that after a certain age and with a certain figure only a bra with pulleys will accomplish what you're asking for.

Hmmm, we come in all shapes and sizes. I don't have a problem with that at all. And she has a pretty face. I guess my only beef is, I can't say I think of her as stylish, and this is the style section. That's ok, Svetlana, I'm not stylish, either. I just like looking at others who are and have that je ne sais quoi flair.

The outfits would look better if she utilized Spanx. Not putting her down or anything, but it would 'clean things up'. She looks really put together in the number 3 photo with the string of pearls.

I agree. The dress in photo #3 is the best for her figure. The v-neck with the a-line skirt balances her out while the material over her arms covers without adding extra bulk. Those dresses aren't easy to find. If I were her I'd have a good dress maker copy the look in different fabrics.

I'm sure the first mistress has better style.

Dmitry Medvedev is the president of Russia; Putin is the current Prime Minister.
