Amal Clooney Gives the Slinky Slip Dress a Red Carpet Feel

Hollywood’s reigning power couple George and Amal Clooney made an appearance at the world premiere of Ticket to Paradise in London this evening (George stars in the film alongside Julia Roberts; They both produced it as well.) On the red carpet, the Clooneys struck a polished note in elegant evening wear. George wore a sleek three-piece navy suit with a crisp button-up and black dress shoes, while Amal—ever the fashion plate—chose a slinky slip dress worthy of such an event. 

It’s not clear if Amal’s dress is fresh off the runway or vintage, but we wouldn’t be surprised if it’s the latter. The barrister and human rights activist has a thing for reviving archival gowns, having worn vintage pieces from Christian Dior, Bill Blass, and Versace among many others. Clooney is also a master of the party dress, so it’s no surprise that she embraced a bit of glitz for the event. The minty-green hue of her gown called back to one of her best dress moments of the summer—a sequined Ermanno Scervino minidress with lace trim—only this iteration, with its floor-length hemline and beads arranged in a chevron, felt decidedly more formal and ready for a movie premiere. Her tiny gold clutch, diamond jewelry, and pointy-toe heels helped. Amal never misses on the red carpet.
