We all know a bit about Chinese eccentricity but never before we have heard such a thing where a first lady's fashion sense can create such a fuss in the political and social  circuit of the Beijing and Shanghai. If you have no clue about the matter than let's tell you that Chinese first Lady Peng Liyuan, wife of President Xi Jinping, presented herself in her Russia visit so fashionably that she earned the  admiration from millions across the globe and deservingly won the new first lady of fashion title dethroning Michelle Obama . Unfortunately her sense of aesthetics  irked Beijing so much that now all state run websites are trying to block her images from the internet..!

Mrs Liyuan is the  Dean of the People's Liberation Army Art Academy and a renowned folk singer. As foreign media is indulging in the matter , Wall Street Journal criticized Chinese authorities for taking the matter in a bad taste. The paper argued that since she is a celebrity in her own right the negative attention regarding her wardrobe is needless .

Indeed..Beauty is a cruel mistress...( Mostly applicable to CPC members..!)
