Amid coronavirus pandemic, Slovakian President Zuzana Caputova is taking the internet by storm after she wore color-coordinated face masks at different events.

On March 21, Caputova appointed a centre-right coalition government headed by Igor Matovic, leader of the Ordinary People (OLANO) party. During the ceremony, Caputova's face mask stood out among the other participants due to the fashionable twist to it.
