Hollywood royalty Amal and George Clooney once again brought their iconic glamour to the red carpet at the 79th Venice Film Festival. The power couple arrived in classic Venice fashion – via water taxi to the 2023 DVF Awards. All eyes were on human rights lawyer Amal Clooney as she captivated in a breathtaking blush pink lace gown by Diane von Furstenberg that exuded modern day princess elegance.
The stunning frock featured a whimsical tulle overlay with an asymmetrical skirt that added graceful movement as Amal exited the water taxi. Delicate spaghetti straps and a drop waist cinched with a satin belt created an ultra-feminine silhoutte. The intricate lace and elegant details were perfectly in line with Amal’s signature aesthetic of melding sophistication and romance. She continued the princesscore vibe with pearl and gemstone drop earrings and a shimmering bronze clutch.
Amal’s beauty look was equally regal, with softly curled locks pulled into a half-updo that allowed face-framing strands to elegantly frame her features. A glowing complexion, rose gold eyeshadow, and subtle mauve lip completed the glamorous yet understated glam.
Ever the dapper counterpart, George Clooney complemented his wife impeccably in a classic black tuxedo, white button-up and black dress shoes. The actor and filmmaker emanated sophistication and old Hollywood charm.
The iconic couple has become red carpet royalty, turning heads on the Venice water taxi arrival as well as every festival red carpet they grace. Amal and George Clooney continually demonstrate that elegance and style go hand-in-hand, whether dressed to the nines or strolling the streets of Italy.
Earlier this week, the couple brought their trademark brand of tailored chic to a casual Italian getaway. Amal Clooney looked effortlessly stylish in a mod black-and-white graphic minidress and slingback kitten heels as she walked arm-in-arm with her husband.
The Venice Film Festival carried on this year despite ongoing SAG-AFTRA and WAG strikes, as the films premiering obtained interim waivers. Indie productions not financed by AMPTP members like Adam Driver’s Ferrari, Jessica Chastain’s Memory, and Jacob Elordi and Cailee Spaeny’s Priscilla were granted permission to screen.
While stars and studios negotiate contract agreements, the show goes on at Venice thanks to independent films. But the true stars of Venice will always be that iconic water taxi arrival and departures along the canals.
And Amal and George Clooney have shown they can nail refined elegance whether on a red carpet or hopping into a water taxi. The power duo continues to bring Old Hollywood glamour to modern day Italy, proving iconic style withstands the test of time. In an ever-changing world, we can always rely on the Clooneys to serve up sophistication, grace, and show-stopping fashion.
