Amal Clooney more Hollywood than ever in a mermaid dress in New York

A slender silhouette, sparkling jewelry, long, impeccably styled hair that falls in a cascade… Once again, Amal Clooney caused a sensation on September 26, in New York, by going with her husband, George Clooney, to the gala The Albies organized by their foundation, Foundation for Justice. This aims to protect human rights in more than 40 countries around the world. It was in a long mermaid-cut dress that the Lebanese-British lawyer presented herself to the photographers, signing a more than noticed entrance.

This black velvet dress by Versace hugged her figure and fell to the floor in a train. A look that Amal Clooney accessorized with a black velvet minaudière worn in the hand, as well as a multitude of sparkling diamond jewelry that she displayed on her wrists and ears. The look, glamorous as possible, recalled those of the actresses of old Hollywood, like Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany’s (1961) or Grace Kelly in The Country Girl (1954). At his side, George Clooney opted for a classic dark gray tuxedo, and once again set his sights on the traditional bow tie. An elegant duo which confirms their status as one of the most iconic couples.

Mermaid Gala

Unlike the princess cut, which we could associate with Lady Diana’s famous wedding dress, the mermaid cut is designed to hug the curves of the body. By marking the waist, it offers its wearer a slender silhouette. Enough to seduce Amal Clooney who, when it comes to dresses, swears by this shape. Like on September 1, during the Venice Film Festival, where she chose a butter yellow gala dress, the most fashionable color in recent months, in a mermaid cut. Divine!
