Evita echoes in Argentine election
A fashion designer who was recently comparing the looks and styles of the main Argentine presidential candidates described Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner as a "very sexy, very strong and very attractive" woman.
He had not seen such a good-looking woman in Argentina politics since Eva Peron, who died 55 years ago, he said.
The designer's comments, however ungallant to the other two women also running for president, show how Cristina Kirchner, wife of the current president Nestor Kirchner and front-runner to win the 28 October election, has captured the limelight.
Since Mrs Kirchner announced in July that she was standing for president, people have talked about the similarities between her and Argentina's legendary first lady, Evita.
