Angela Merkel, Chancellor of Germany
德國總理默克爾
Angela Merkel was elected first female chancellor of Germany in 2005 and re-elected as the country's chancellor in 2009. She has been described as "the de facto leader of the European Union." Merkel’s dressing philosophy is "one size fits all." She always wears the same style pantsuit, but in different colors every day. Her signature style is an honest reflection of her political persona—a no-nonsense, rational woman. Dutch graphic designer Noortje van Eekelen even created a Pantone chart of the look of Merkel’s dress. From black to beige to a very on-trend purple, it runs through an impressive 90 shades.
2005年11月22日,默克爾在德國聯邦議院總理選舉中當選新一屆聯邦總理,成為德國歷史上第一位女總理。2009年10月28日,她再次連任總理。人們稱她為“歐盟真正的領袖”。默克爾的穿衣哲學是“一刀切”。她總是穿著同一款式的褲套裝,唯一的區別只是顏色不同。默克爾標志性著裝風格正是她政治形象的完美反映——一個嚴肅、理性的女性。一位荷蘭藝術家用默克爾的西裝拼出一張色卡,從黑色到米黃色再到時下流行的紫色,顏色變化居然多達90種。
