Amal Clooney generally prefers sleek, classic looks as opposed to trend-driven outfits, but her latest was a tad more daring than usual—and we're all for it. She wore Jonathan Simkhai's sold-out Sheer Chantilly Lace Bustier Midi Dress ($940), which comes complete with a beautiful built-in bustier and see-through sleeves and skirt. Although a sheer bustier dress might seem hard to pull off, Clooney made it look thoroughly elegant with the addition of a nude slip underneath. Leave it to Clooney to put her polished stamp on a controversial trend.

Clooney also carried the Gabriela Hearst Nina Bag, an It bag that's also Meghan Markle–approved. Perhaps the two have swapped fashion tips at some point? After all, Clooney attended both the royal wedding and Markle's NYC baby shower. Now that's a power duo right there. Scroll down to see how Clooney wore a sheer dress, and shop other versions of the trend.

Associate Director, Fashion News

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 13 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 Associate Director of Fashion News (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.
