Female leaders brighten up world political stage with glamor

The presence of female leaders on the world stage has always been eye-catching.

With smiles and colorful dresses, they stand out from a sea of dark or blue suits, and liven up the atmosphere at meetings with somber topics such as the sluggish global economy.

Thus it is no surprise that the media's cameras zoom in more often on female leaders, though small in number, than on their male counterparts.
