George Clooney’s wife Amal puts It-girl spin on iconic Versace look in shimmering mini dress

The star’s daring look was paired with her Gianvito Rossi ‘Plexi’ pumps with a gold toe, which she has worn to a number of A-list events, including the New York Film Festival premiere of George’s film, Jay Kelly, last September.

Amal’s party girl look also featured a gold clutch and statement earrings. Her hair, which was styled by Dimitris Giannetos, cascaded down her shoulders in loose waves, and her makeup look featured a nude lip and subtly shimmery eyes.

Amal’s red carpet moment

Earlier in the evening, Amal walked the red carpet with her husband. She was dressed in a gorgeous hourglass-shaped dress in a ruby red hue. The mermaid gown featured ruching over the bodice and skirt, and it teamed perfectly with a clutch and heels in the same vibrant shade.

The gown was extra special as it was a custom-made Balmain garment inspired by a vintage gown Pierre Balmain designed for the Haute Couture Fall/Winter collection of 1957.

“Inspired by Greek mythology, Pierre Balmain named the design after Erato, one of the nine Muses who presided over lyric poetry,” Balmain’s official X account tweeted on 12 January.

“The red silk chiffon gown features soft draping and a crossed construction that opens into an elegant open back, finished with a delicate tie detail.”

Amal’s first outing of 2026

Amal’s Golden Globes appearance was her first public outing of 2026, having kept things on the downlow with George and their two children, twins Ella and Alexander, eight, over Christmas.

Before that, the power couple were spotted at the Malacañang Palace in the Philippines, ahead of their talk at the Social Good Summit, an event hosted by news website Rappler.

For this outing, Amal opted for a quietly elegant black pencil dress with a coordinating jacket and black pumps.
