Since her 2014 marriage to George Clooney, Amal Clooney has become a fashion fixture at red carpet events alongside her husband. The British-Lebanese human rights attorney‘s style, while contemporary in many ways, also includes looks that draw on Old Hollywood glamour, and her Venice Film Festival wardrobe has repeatedly returned to vintage silhouettes and decades past.

Atelier Versace and Jean-Louis Scherrer have been designers Clooney has incorporated into her Venice Film Festival attire, with nods to the ’90s and classic Hollywood. Before the 2026 edition of the Venice Film Festival kicks off on Sept. 2, during which her husband will be honored with the Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement, WWD looks back at Clooney’s red carpet style through the years.

At the 2025 Venice Film Festival, Amal Clooney harkened back to the ’90s in a vintage 1995 fuchsia high-low gown by Jean-Louis Scherrer. The strapless, maximalist dress boasted bold color, ruching and a minidress hem with a voluminous skirt at the back for a high-low effect.
