Carla Bruni in Paris, 2008Carla Bruni-Sarkozy, France’s First Lady, has successfully sued a company that printed a nude, black and white photo of her on handbags.

Bruni-Sarkozy was awarded the equivalent of $57,500. The photo was taken in 1993 when she was a professional model.

Pardon, the company selling the handbag, said it had sold half of the 10,000 it printed.

Sarkozy said she would donate the proceeds to charity.

Here is a photo of the handbag.
