Amal Clooney's most stylish moments, from colour block suits to extravagant ball gowns
Amal Clooney proves timeless style will always reign supreme
As one of the world's most stylish women, it wasn't easy to compile all of Amal Clooney's best fashion moments, but we've whittled it down to some of her absolute best looks from 2013 to now.
Human rights activist, lawyer, public speak and mom, Amal Clooney is multi talented and dresses well to boot. Married to George Clooney, Amal is well-versed in glamorous red carpet looks, and her Quiet Luxury aesthetic is one that many women try to emulate.
Never missing the mark, Amal Clooney's best event looks don't shy away from colour, print or embellishment, while Amal's work ensembles are all business, making her a great source of style inspiration. Here are some of Amal's best looks from over the years.
Amal Clooney's most stylish moments of all time
London, 2013: Bold colours and daring accessories
During an outing in London, Amal sported a chic, crimson wrap dress, and grey coat to keep warm. She also sported peep-toe lace-up boots (remember when they were all the rage?) along with some huge hooped earrings - proving that dressing practically doesn't always have to be boring.
RRP: £375 | One of the best wool coats, this is a must as soon as the winter weather hits. Wool is a fabric that is naturally warming and the longer line fit means you get add protection in this smartly tailored design. Great for the office or the evening.
RRP: £129 | This chic satin midi dress is a strong nod to Amal's red frock but with a slightly longer hemline. The faux wrap is created by the belted middle, but avoids any fashion faux pas from gusts of wind. We love the figure flattering button front too.
RRP: £40 | While Amal opted for a pair of statement metallic lace up boots, you can get a similar, but perhaps more wearable style with some black boots in a similar style. Rocking a peep toe with tights is totally acceptable in the winter, to keep you stylishly warm.
Venice, 2014: daring mini dress
This structured mini dress has to be one of Amal Clooney's most memorable style moments - for all the right reasons. From the rounded shape and floral motif to the asymmetric hem, it is both daring and feminine - perfect for a day in Venice.
New York, 2014: Casual kooky prints
Colour us obsessed with this funky look from Amal, featuring a pair of highly-patterned white trousers, a black jacket with an asymmetrical zipper, and a pair of smart brogues to finish. Clearly, Amal was ahead of her time.
London, 2014: Color-block suit
For a look that's a bit more business-appropriate, Amal rocked this coral, tailored dress with a matching jacket. A great autumn outfit idea, she paired her smart dress with a pair of fun, floral patterned pump heels by Oscar de la Renta, and a large tan bag, in a look that's truly screaming "lawyer chic."

Florence, 2015: Strapless Dolce & Gabbana
OK, let's be honest - can you think of a sexier couple than the Clooney's?!
While at a gala in Florence in 2015, Amal made one of her first public appearances with George (they got married in 2014 in Venice) - and stunned with a sleek, strapless Dolce & Gabbana black dress for the occasion. She also wore her hair in a deep side part, as well as red lipstick that oozed Hollywood Glamour.
Met Gala, 2015: firey red
Amal Clooney wore this gorgeous structured John Galliano gown for the 2015 Met Gala. The theme was China: Through the Looking Glass and throughout the evening there were many examples of how to wear red, but this has to be one of the most notable gowns of the night.
Golden Globes, 2015: in Dior Haute Couture
In another Hollywood glam look (sensing a theme?), Amal attended the 2015 Golden Globes wearing a chic, floor-length Dior Haute Couture gown that had a long, one-shoulder cape detailing. She accessorised with a pair of white opera gloves, proving that timeless fashion doesn't have to be unexciting.
London, 2016: Lady in red
A vision in red, this is clearly a colour that Amal Clooney feels confident in. The lawyer rocked a fiery red skirt suit while on business in London, pairing the skirt suit with sheer black tights and a pair of black, pointed-toe pump heels. Seriously, if only we could look this good at the office.
Manhattan, 2016: show-stopping coat
Although Amal is typically spotted in fashionable business attire and glamorous red carpet looks, the activist also has impeccable everyday style, as proved by this casual chic look. With a nod to Brigitte Bardot, she paired an oversized pink coat with a pair of ankle-skimming black and white checked trousers, as well as a plain black top - and finished off the look with one of the best designer bags and a pair of black, dressy flats.
New York City, 2017: vivid green ensemble
This colour combination certainly isn't for the fainthearted, but Amal Clooney can absolutely pull off this acidic green/yellow hue. Contrasted with black trims and matching pumps and sunnies, this statement look is bold but sophisticated.
London, 2017: simple street style
Look no further for camel coat outfit inspiration. This neutral shade looks gorgeous when paired with brighter colours like red and Amal has nailed the simple yet stylish feel, finished off with a smart, structured handbag. You can even shop a similar coat from John Lewis.
Venice, 2017: a vision in purple
After seeing how good Amal Clooney looks in this dress, we want to see her in purple more often. It is a bold choice for a formal event but she really couldn't look any more chic. Combined with her cropped hairstyle, Amal looks enduringly glam.
Los Angeles, 2017: a vision in blue
A vision in blue, a colour not typically worn by Amal, she walked the red carpet at an event in LA with George while pregnant with twins, still looking as effortless as usual. Her blue and white dress billowed to the floor, and she wore her sweeping, black hair in her usual side part (similar to Kate Middleton's side swoop), accentuating the free-flowing nature of the elegant look.
New York City, 2018: spring street style
We love how Amal Clooney has styled her midi skirt here - perfect for spring weather. Black and white are a foolproof combination but it's her heels that particularly caught our eye here. With a pointed toe and unique cut, they add unmatched glamour to the outfit.
Met Gala, 2018: florals for the win
During the 2018 Met Gala, Amal Clooney sported this floral strapless Richard Quinn gown, complete with, yes, a pair of sleek, navy blue trousers - she was one of the hosts that year, so it was only right that she showed up looking as fabulous as can be.
The Prince's Trust Dinner, 2019: pure white elegance
Another timelessly elegant gown, this soft white number is made by the one sleeve detail that adds a cape-like feel. A masterclass in how to make a classic silhouette feel more personal and fashion-forward, this stellar white dress will always be one of Amal's best looks.
Scotland, 2019: navy blue jumpsuit
In a look that we wish we could copy, Amal wore a subtly sexy navy blue jumpsuit while at an event with George in Scotland, pairing the enviable look with a pair of classic pumps and a super chic animal-print clutch bag.
London, 2021: sequins and feathers galore
While leaving the NoMad hotel in London in 2021, Amal and George stepped out in style, with Amal wearing an elegant, strapless custom 16Arlington sequinned gown, adorned with subtle sparkles. To top off the already covetable look, she paired a white feathery cape and red lipstick with the dress, once again serving glamour in its purest form.
London, 2022: the wow factor
It's rare that Amal bares her leg, but when she does, she absolutely rocks it. This sparkly yellow '70s-inspired dress looks incredible on her, creating the perfect balance between elegant and flirty with its body-hugging silhouette and flared sleeves. Amal also paired this dress with some holographic, pointed-toe heels, adding extra oomph to the look.
Academy of Motion Pictures Gala, 2022: corset dressing in green
Amal definitely got the memo that sage green was one of the "it" colours of 2022, as she rocked a floor-length white and green Del Core gown to the Academy of Motion Pictures Gala.
Kennedy Center Honors, 2022: shimmer and shine
While strapless dresses are certainly a key silhouette for Amal, she took a bit of a fun spin with this shimmering silver dress that had small, draped sleeves on each arm. Amal also paired the sparkly number with a matching silver clutch and, of course, her signature red lip.
Ticket to Paradise Premiere, 2022: color-clash perfection
We're obsessed with this flowy printed dress Amal sported to the Ticket to Paradise (a movie George starred in with Julia Roberts in 2022) - totally taking the island vibes of the movie with her on the red carpet.
Clooney Foundation For Justice Inaugural Albie Awards, 2022: tassels on tassels
One of our all-time favourite looks from Amal, this metallic tassel dress is breathtaking. From the corseted top to the draped structure, this dramatic uber glam gown accentuates her frame to perfection.
New York City, 2022: off-duty jeans
Amal Clooney's street style is just as good as her red carpet style and this outfit proves it. Elevating a pair of basic jeans by styling with a blazer, loose cami, and a pair of pointed heels, she can make even the most casual of outfits look expensive.
New York City, 2022: monochromatic street style
Sticking to one hue is the simplest way to make an outfit look sophisticated, so take a lesson from Amal Clooney's ensemble. A trench coat is a timeless style essential and she makes it look even more elegant by sticking to the same tone with her knee-length dress.
London, 2022: minty slip dress
Seen heading for the 'Trouble in Paradise' London Premiere, Amal looks timelessly glamorous in this slip style dress. The minty colour and sparkly embellishments work to modernise this vintage silhouette beautifully.
"We Choose the Earth" Mundial Conference, 2023: asymmetric jumpsuit
Another bold colour choice from Amal Clooney, this asymmetric jumpsuit looks phenomenal on her. From the cigarette-style trousers to the shoulder draping, this is a gorgeous alternative to a dress that expresses her personal style.
The Prince's Trust And TKMaxx & Homesense Awards, 2023: jumpsuit joy
We love seeing Amal Clooney in jumpsuits and this modern style couldn't look better on her. From the smart pleated trousers to the blocky belt, this look is both trendy and timeless.
Venice, 2023: patterned shift dress
Simple and chic, this mini shift dress is giving us plenty of warm weather wardrobe inspiration. Styled with a pair of statement sunnies and a black shoulder bag, this outfit proves that a graphic print and matching accessories can complete any ensemble.
Austria, 2023: chic business-wear
In a truly stunning attempt at chic business wear, Amal sported this undeniably chic tailored jumpsuit with very subtle white pinstripes at a conference in Austria. Seriously, we're taking notes for our next business trip.
New York City, 2023: sparkly perfection
It is hard to tell from far away but this dress is embellished with gems throughout, adding sparkle and shine to the soft colour palette. We love the small train that adds a dose of drama without taking away from the fitted silhouette and glitzy fabric.
DVF Awards, 2023: glamorous lace and texture
This dress features countless stellar details. The overlaying of fabrics and the lace trim add texture and volume to the fitted shape, and we love how the soft hue doesn't take away from the asymmetric hem. One of Amal Clooney's most unique looks, it is one of our favourite dresses of hers.
