DHAKA: With the help of Oscar de la Renta, Stella McCartney, Giambattista Valli and Dolce & Gabbana, human rights lawyer Amal Alamuddin vaulted into the top echelons of Hollywood fashion with her stylish Italian wedding to actor George Clooney.

Alamuddin, 36, showcased several outfits during her whirlwind wedding weekend in Venice, picking British, American and Italian designers and channelling golden age Hollywood glamour.

The piece de resistance was an off-the-shoulder tulle and Chantilly lace wedding gown, revealed on Tuesday by fashion magazine Vogue and custom-made by New York-based de la Renta.

‘George and I wanted a wedding that was romantic and elegant, and I can’t imagine anyone more able than Oscar to capture this mood in a dress,’ the British-Lebanese bride told Vogue, reports The Straits Times.
