To speak at a panel and visit a local girls school, Clooney chose a textured white fitted dress paired with an aqua blue stone necklace. And to meet with representatives of the Malawian Ministry of Justice and Ministry of Gender, she switched into a cinched tan blazer jacket, cropped black cigarette pants, and black stilettos.

It’s a big return to work for Clooney, who has been enjoying summer all over: she attended Venice Film Festival where her husband George was receiving an award, and has been hosting glitzy galas around her home in Lake Como.
The Clooney Foundation’s latest partnership will fund scholarships to support women and girls pursuing careers in law, while more work has been done to provide pioneering technology to the Gender Based Violence and Child Crimes Unit under the Directorate of Public Prosecutions to support cases involving violence against women and children. A program with the University of Malawi will also provide fully-paid scholarships to 30 girls to go to law school and establish a fully-paid fellowship for early-career lawyers in aid of defending the rights of women and children who are victims of violence.
“I am so proud to launch this new Scholarship Programme at the University of Malawi so that brilliant young girls in Malawi can now study law at the nation’s top law school. And I’m excited that our new Fellowship Programme will help the University expand access to justice for women and children across the country – starting now and for years to come,” Clooney shared in a statement.
Amal Clooney’s style is as consistent and considered as her commitment to justice.
