    Amal Clooney gives excellent answer to fashion question at European
    Court of Human Rights

    Ms Clooney stood before Europe's top human rights court to represent Armenia

    HEATHER SAUL
    Wednesday 28 January 2015


    Amal Clooney, the renowned human rights lawyer, gave an excellent
    response to a journalist who asked her about her fashion choices as
    she appeared in the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg
    today.

    Ms Clooney stood before Europe's top human rights court to represent
    Armenia in their case against DoÄ?u Perinçek, the leader of the Turkish
    Workers' Party.

    In 2008, Perinçek was convicted of denying the 1915 Armenian genocide.
    Ms Clooney is arguing on an appeal before the Strasbourg-based
    European Court of Human Rights, which ruled in favour of the man, Dogu
    Perincek, in December 2013.

    Perincek claimed his right to free speech was violated when Swiss
    courts convicted him of denying the genocide in 2005.


    Ms Clooney's arrival in Brussels' saw some media outlets focus on her
    choice of clothing, particularly the `vibrant' red coat she was
    spotted wearing for her flight out of the US.

    Telegraph's Brussel's correspondent addressed the conjecture over her
    wardrobe, to which Ms Clooney pointed at her black robes and
    reportedly replied: `I'm wearing Ede & Ravenscroft".

    Graduates and judiciary might be familiar with the tailors, who supply
    gowns hoods and hats for academic and legal occasions.
