Amal Clooney's Anti–Party Outfit Will Make You the Chicest One in the Room

You know the drill: Every time holiday season rolls around, people feel the need to bust out their sparkliest minidresses and best jewel-tone velvets. We love these looks, too, but they're far from the only options—you can still be party-ready even if your outfit doesn't scream festive. Just take pointers from Amal Clooney if you'd rather show up looking timelessly chic with no holiday clichés in sight.

Photographed in New York City, Clooney wore a long wool coat and matching maxi dress along with an Alexander McQueen bag and Givenchy pumps. While head-to-toe gray doesn't sound exciting, Clooney managed to make it look ridiculously stylish by choosing sleek, well-tailored pieces. Scroll down to see Clooney's new look and shop the gray trend for yourself. You might even be convinced to retire your favorite LBD for a few months.

Erin Fitzpatrick
Senior News Editor

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 12 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of senior news editor (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
