We’re taking style notes from Amal Clooney again – always looking at her previous outfits for inspiration, we came across a look so timeless and elegant and just had to share.
The outfit in question was actually one she wore to officiate her wedding to George Clooney in 2014. But despite a decade passing, her stunning ivory and contrasting navy trim suit has timeless appeal. It’s the perfect combination of comfort, style and elegance – so much so we’d never want to take it off.
The ensemble consisted of wide leg suit trousers, the same off-white colour short-sleeve top with contrasting navy trim, and a pair of peep-toe white sandals. Amal topped the look off with the most beautiful summer-ready wide-brimmed sunhat in the same colour combination.

Brixton Jo Straw Rancher Hat
Made from a natural, white-tinted straw, this sun hat boasts a structured look and wide brim to keep your eyes and face protected from the sun.
Amal’s monochrome outfit is so striking against the sun-drenched Italian landscape, with the crisp and clean white shade oozing luxury and sophistication.
Her white wide leg suit trousers are a beautiful summer piece that offer ample coverage and sun protection, with the high waist elongating the leg while the crisp front pleat detail beings in a statement tailored and structured feel. Still, while they feel very elevated and formal, they’re the perfect style for laid-back summer days as the loose-fitting leg offers tonnes of breathability and keeps the air flowing so you don’t overheat or feel any of that hot stickiness on your skin.
With a floating, short-sleeved blouse offering the same comfort in the heat as her wide leg trousers, Amal pulled together a stunning monochrome outfit. The matching white feels impossibly luxe, with the striking band of navy at the top’s hemline introducing some subtle though eye-catching contrast.
This navy detail tied in the tones of her sun hat beautifully, with the hat boasting the same white base with a navy ribbon tied around its peak. The wide brim and structured look is stunning as well as super practical as it keeps the sun out of Amal’s eyes and off of the delicate skin around the eyes and across the face – though, even if your face is as covered as Amal’s in the sun, you should still be wearing one of the best facial sunscreens or at least a foundation with SPF on your face to protect from sun damage and signs of ageing.
With a pair of peep-toe sandals, again in a white tone, finishing off the outfit, Amal pulled together a stunning monochrome look for her weekend getaway.
Monochrome outfits are perfect for weekends away, especially if you’re trying to save a few pennies by taking only a carry on or small suitcase with your travel capsule wardrobe inside. With Amal’s all white look being made up of classic and timeless silhouettes, she can easily pair each of the pieces with any other style of any other colour and know it’s going to look fabulous.
Pairing the top, sandals and sunhat with some comfortable jeans would create the ultimate elevated casual look, as would styling the wide leg suit trousers with a simple ribbed tank top and pair of stylish white trainers – and this versatility is just what you want on holiday.
