Sarkozy - elevated heels in shoes, Carla - flat shoes

 Nicolas Sarkozy & Carla Bruni. He is 53; she, 40. He's a conservative; she once welcomed a journalist to an interview with the words, "Sorry for being topless." The former catwalker (5-feet-11) towers over the pint-size politician (5-feet-6), so much so that she has supposedly stopped wearing heels to avoid the nickname endured by Sarkozy's last wife, Cecilia - who was ridiculed as his "control tower. "Referring to Sarkozy's comments that he was preparing "the biggest reform of the social model since the Liberation (of France)", Socialist spokesperson Benoit Hamon said: "In psychoanalysis, this is what you call the syndrome of the small man who considers that everything he does is bigger than anything that has ever happened," he told reporters.French media say Sarkozy is about 1.65 metres tall, about 20cm shorter than his predecessor Jacques Chirac, and he wears shoes with particularly high heels.
