Many call her Asia’s Michelle Obama. Considered to be a style icon, China’s First Lady Peng Liyuan also topped Vanity Fair’s list of International best dressed women in 2013.
In India, accompanying her husband China’s President Xi Jinping on a three-day visit, she has won many hearts with her style and elegance. During the Ahmedabad leg of her visit, Peng changed her clothes twice, displaying her chic, elegant and beautiful style.
