We all know politics gets a bad reputation when it comes to fashion. Often represented through many dull suits in hues of grey, black and navy blue - we can see why that may be the case, but in contrast, we are happy to introduce you to the oh-so-colourful and gloriously patterned wardrobe of David Cameron's wife, Samantha Cameron. Not only has the 48-year-old solidified herself as somewhat of a style icon over the years, but she also has launched her own successful fashion label Cefinn boasting everything from dresses to knitwear and trouser suits. Here we have collated some of our favourite looks from the woman who has added a bit of va-va-voom to fashion in politics...

Never one to shy away from a brightly coloured pattern, Samatha rocked this fun patterned midi-dress outside Number 10 ensuring all eyes in Downing Street were on her. The dress had small insect and floral print detail amongst the hexagonal pattern making it the ideal summer frock. The brunette beauty added a further touch of individual style pairing the sleeveless dress with khaki heels and a matching khaki belt - a nature theme perhaps?

Samantha reassured everyone it wasn't all doom and gloom the day she and her family left number 10 when she stunned in this colourful Roksanda dress. The midi dress came in a geometric pattern of bright orange, pale pink and of course, Samantha's favourite colour to wear - navy. The fashion designer paired the dress with a pair of black velvet heels and matching black high-waisted belt to really let the colours of her dress shine.

We all remember when Theresa May whipped out a pair of leopard print kitten heels and people weren't 100 per cent convinced. Well, Samatha convinced everyone that animal print can work within the political arena when she glowed in this pink leopard print midi dress from her own fashion brand Cefinn. Samatha paired the stylish dress with nude heels and minimal jewellery, making the pussybow neck detail the main attraction.

Although Samatha is partial to brightly patterned dress or coloured blazer, this by no means she doesn't know how to nail a classic black outfit. Steeping out chic as ever, Samantha wore a sleeveless high-neck black blouse with classic black cigarette trousers adding a pop of colour with her blue clutch bag and a touch of beige from her pumps - classic but oh-so-chic.

Pink trouser suits had their moment but Samatha took the trend into her own hands by incorporating her personal style with a dusty blue version. Paring the flatteringly tailored suit with a black top, black pumps and a pair of trendy hopped earings, the mum-of-four looked every inch the girl boss.
