Amal Clooney found the chicest (and easiest) way to wear white this holiday season

Amal Clooney in white mini dress and trench coat on April 27, 2022.

Amal Clooney put together the most beautiful, festive-feeling look for winter, when she styled a chic white mini dress and pair of snakeskin print heels with a practical white trench coat.

The classic trench coat is an autumn and winter capsule wardrobe staple. The longline style, with its practical waterproof fabric, flattering silhouette and elegant fit makes the coat style a go-to to battle the chilly and wet weather and it looks impossibly chic no matter how it's styled.

Stepping out in New York back in 2022, Amal Clooney expertly styled her chic white trench coat for an elegant and elevated look, using it to add an extra layer of warmth to her timeless outfit of a white shift dress and pair of snakeskin print court shoe heels.

Amal's white mini dress boasts the most flattering cut, with a high-sitting boat neckline whose wide, horizontal cut runs high across the collarbones and accentuates the shoulders beautifully. The loose-fitting bodice of the dress is so flattering and cascades down into a lovely A-line silhouette that's reminiscent of the 60s shift dress style – we just love the classic shape.

Leaning into the retro-inspired look, Amal opted for a pair of classic court style heels to accessorise the dress, with their snakeskin print and blend of neutral tones adding a nice pop of texture while still playing into the muted and almost monochrome outfit. We have to admit, it's really nice to see the different style print, which is popping up more and more as alternative to leopard print that is dominating right now.

Amal threw on a crisp, white double breasted trench coat over the top of the dress, with the neutral colour matching the tone of her outfit perfectly for a sleek style that oozes sophistication. We've actually seen Amal in this coat before and she even paired it with the same snakeskin heels too! Though she opted to add a little more colour and wore a beautiful green midi dress with the two staples, proving their impressive versatility.

She completed the look with a black leather handbag and minimal jewellery, as has become a signature look for her over the years. It's no wonder she often opts for a classic black handbag like this one. It's a great, staple accessory that can take you effortlessly from day to night and occasion to occasion, oozing luxury and sophistication no matter how it is styled.

The entire look is a masterclass in simple yet sophisticated styling, with the white mini dress, snakeskin heels, trench coat and handbag all being wardrobe staples that can effortlessly transition through seasons and occasions - we're going to be inspired by this look as much for our work wear as we are for this year's Christmas party outfit ideas.
