Brigitte Macron joins the stylish wives of the world leaders attending the G20 summit in Rome

The first ladies of the world leaders attending the G20 summit in Rome today put on a stylish display as they arrived for a private visit to the Colosseum.

Boris’ pregnant wife Carrie Johnson and French President Emmanuel Macron’s partner Brigitte stood out from the group of spouses as they attended a walkabout at the ancient Roman site.

In a nod to sustainability ahead of husband Boris Johnson’s eco plea at COP26 tomorrow, pregnant Carrie Johnson recycled a red £59.99 Zara blazer worn earlier this month, which she coordinated with a matching floral dress hired from Ibiza label De La Vali and Zara kitten heels.

Meanwhile the wife of Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez, Begona Sanchez, looked stunning in a plaid cropped blazer, matching flared pleated skirt and nude sock boots.

Also making an appearance was the wife of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Ermine Erdogan, who opted for a coordinated hijab, face mask and dress.

And keeping cool in the autumn sun, the wife of South Korea’s President Moon Jae-in, Kim Jeong-suk, looked elegant in a nude blazer and statement pearl earrings.

The wife of Italian’s Prime minister Mario Draghi, Maria Serenella Cappello, put on a similarly formal display in a matching mauve blazer and blouse, injecting a touch of glamour with a string pearl necklace.

A notable absence from the walkabout event was US First Lady Jill Biden who was kept busy attending engagements with her husband but later appeared a spouses luncheon where she posed in between Ms Macron and Ms Sanchez.

‘Beautiful Roman luncheon with my fellow #G20 partners at Villa Doria Pamphilj. Thank you to my friend, Maria, for hosting us,’ Biden wrote in a tweet with a group photo from the event.

Carrie put on a striking display in a £59.99 recycled red Zara blazer and coordinating dress as she arrived to visit Rome’s ancient Colosseum in Italy today.

The 33-year-old, who is expecting her second child with the Prime Minister, joined spouses of world leaders attending the G20 summit a day before the start of the COP26 climate summit in Glasgow that will be hosted by Boris Johnson, 57. 

Opting once again for a powerful red ensemble, Carrie, who wore the blazer in Mannchester earlier this month before choosing a red dress from sustainable label Cabbages & Roses the following week, waved as she arrived to the historical landmark, wearing a black facemask. 

It is thought that Boris will use his ‘secret weapon’ Carrie, who has been championing sustainable fashion of late, to charm world leaders into taking action in his ‘save the world plea’ to stop climate change tomorrow.

Wearing her hair in loose waves, she appeared in good spirits as she kept her masks on while making her way into the ancient amphitheatre.

Colour psychologist Lee Chambers recently told FEMAIL that Carrie donned the vibrant red garments to ‘convey energy and a message that the future is bright’ while ‘building her personal brand’.

Lee said: ‘When it comes to a Conservative conference, wearing red is a political statement in itself.

‘As a colour, it conveys passion and energy, and can certainly be used to showcase feelings of power and assertiveness in being in the position of the wife of the Prime Minister.’

The first lady loves red: Earlier this month Carrie covered up her baby bump in a £360 red dress from a sustainable British brand as she supported husband Boris at his keynote speech at the Tory Party conference. Pictured, arriving at the venue 

He continued: ‘It also draws attention and catches the eye, and this will be important to her as she continues to build her own status and personal brand.

‘It is a really strong colour, and with this comes portraying that you are part of the strength needed to navigate these challenging times, and as a timeless colour brings a real intensity to the message that the future can be bright.

As for the message she will be conferring, it is one of boldness and courage in the face of adversity. She will be feeling she can and is willing to draw attention and not feel that she has to pale into the shadows even during pregnancy.

‘It is certainly a fiery message to her husband that she is right by his side and may even take some of the heat off Boris himself.’

The colour red appears to be Carrie’s preferred hue of the moment, with Britain’s first lady wearing four scarlet ensembles in recent months.

Earlier this month, Carrie opted for a £360 red dress from sustainable British brand Cabbages & Roses as she supported husband Boris at his keynote speech at the Tory Party conference. 

This is the second time Carrie has worn the red Zara blazer, after attending the Manchester Central Convention Complex in the blazer and a £27.99 white collared shirt with a bow, both from Zara.

COP26 begins on Sunday at Glasgow’s Scottish Event Campus (SEC) and will welcome 30,000 delegates, 10,000 police and as many as 200,000 protesters for the 13-day conference.

It is the first face-to-face summit of the G20 since Covid struck, and has faced various complications.

Last week the Queen announced she would be unable to attend in person, taking advice from medical professionals to rest. 

Additionally, flooding caused major delays for world leaders heading to the summit today – with one train firm urging passengers ‘not to travel’ across the border due to disruption after two road bridges were ‘washed away’ amid torrential rain.

Avanti West Coast – which runs services between London Euston and Glasgow, where the climate conference begins on Sunday – said Network Rail had imposed a series of speed restrictions for safety at several locations.
