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.

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."

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.

She accessorised with a pair of white opera gloves, proving that timeless fashion doesn't have to be unexciting.

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
