The high profile human rights lawyer and Ms George Clooney with her
impeccable fashion sense had already made a name for herself in her
profession. Now, she is making waves as a fashionista on the red
carpet as well as in the courtroom, according to E Online.
At the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg, a correspondent
made a joke at her expense, saying that she was "expected to turn up
in a Versace." Pointing at her gown or robe and collar bands, Amal
Clooney said she was wearing Ede & Ravenscroft. "I'm wearing Ede &
Ravenscroft," she said to the reporter, taking the joke very well
in her stride and laughing it off. For those who are not familiar
with the name, the London firm of tailors has been in the business
of making gowns for lawyers and other legal stuff since 1689.
Amal words went down very well on Twitter, where fans praised her for
the way she was able to handle her celebrity status, after getting
married to George Clooney. Later the journalist, who posed the
question, was forced to respond to the hype by writing an article
on it. Meanwhile, Geoffery Robertson, Amal's senior, was visibly
pleased that the case would now shift focus from her private life to
her professional life as an attorney.
Amal is fighting a genocide denial case against a Turkish politician.
He was convicted for denying the massacre of 1915 that according
to estimates killed 1.5 million Armenians. The politician was found
guilty by a Swiss court in 2008 after he said that the killings were
an "international lie." European Court of Human Rights, however,
gave a verdict in his favour.
Meanwhile, Clooney was recently spotted at the airport, donning a
red leather coat, on her way to the court. She is a barrister with
the London chamber, specialising in human rights, international law
and extradition. She is fluent in three languages English, French and
Arabic. Clooney is famous for representing Wikileaks founder Juilian
Assnge and former Ukrainian Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko.
Apart from being a well-known lawyer, she is now in the public eye
for marrying actor, director, George Clooney in 2014. She had advised
Greece last year on how to get back the disputed statues named 'Elgin
Marbles' from Britain.
