Sporting thigh-high striped stockings and a leather miniskirt, this is the wife of Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich posing for a festive selfie.

Dasha Zhukova wore a holly crown for Christmas photos taken by her friends, the American socialite Derek Blasberg and businesswoman Wendi Deng.

The third wife of Chelsea owner Abramovich was in New York, where the mega-rich couple are building a £63million mansion on the Upper East Side.

They need the space — the pair have two young children together, and Roman has five more from his previous marriage.

Dasha, 35, is well known on the international art scene, putting some of the couple’s £7 billion fortune towards an impressive contemporary art collection.

In June it was reported that Abramovich had won approval to build a luxury mansion in New York.

The 50-year-old tycoon had reportedly spent months battling to turn three landmarked townhouses into one 18,000 square-foot, five-story abode.

At first, the plans were rejected as 'uniformity over authenticity'. They proposed to redesign the front of one house to look like the other two.

But the Landmarks Preservation Commission finally gave Abramovich the green light.

It was also reported that Abramovich had won approval to build a near-identical home in London's exclusive Chelsea.
