Amal Clooney’s Sun-Kissed Studio 54 Glam Is Our Summer Wedding Guest Inspo

Amal Clooney just gave us our ultimate summer 2023 wedding guest glam inspo while attending an event in Sicily with her husband (aka *the* George Clooney)...and it wasn't even for a wedding IRL!

When you first think of wedding guest hair and makeup, you probably picture something simple. There are certain rules—spoken and unspoken—about how a wedding guest should present themselves on someone else's big day, and it's usually not too extra. But wedding etiquette is evolving, and we're seeing more and more joy and playfulness creep into both wedding guest dressing *and* the glam.

Wedding or no wedding, Amal's "Studio 54 glam"—dubbed as such by the look's creator, Dimitris Giannetos—is everything we're going for this summer for wedding season and beyond.

Delivering both hair and makeup (okkkkk Dimitris, we see you), the stylist nailed that perfect balance by leaning into Amal's mega-sequined gown without being OTT. An almost mauve nude lip was warmed up with a peachy Sicilian blush and met with a gentle iridescent inner eye that is giving lilac-y mermaid dreams by delivering that playful touch. It makes sense the makeup was a focal point, given that the couple was in Sicily to celebrate Charlotte Tilbury's 50th birthday.

Amal's go-to bouncy blowout was swapped out for a voluminous, yet polished, take on a mermaid wave, with perfectly-formed S-shaped curls that showed that her hair is possibly the lightest we've ever seen it. With summery golden hues running through the mid-lengths and ends, we almost want to call some slithers in her sun-kissed tresses blonde....

It's Renaissance! It's Mermaidcore! And we're even getting a hint of Barbie. Claps all round.
