If you have totally different stylesheets you can load them by the current selected language by setting the visibility on the HTML Head webpart. Something like:

LocalizationContext.CurrentCulture.CultureCode == "en-GB"

Or you could name your language specific stylesheets with a similar fashion like Site1Stylesheet-en-GB then in your HTML Head webpart just have the URL with the dynamic macro at the end.

<link href="/CMSPages/GetResource.ashx?stylesheet=Site1Stylesheet-{%LocalizationContext.CurrentCulture.CultureCode|(identity)GlobalAdministrator%}" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" />

You could take advantage of the lang attribute in the body tag and render different styles for different cultures.

If you could inspect the source in the body tag you will find the culture eg. en-GB or fr-FR. Then in your css you could do something like body.en-GB {font-weigh: normal; } and change this for other. Hope this helps.
