Nati, I hope you publish this because it needs to be said. I am personally shattered that Amal has stooped to such a low as to wear snake skin – her status as a fashion icon and as a moral crusader is irrecoverable in my mind.
Wearing snake skin is not “fun”. Nor is it “fashion”. It involves the exploitation of third world people with real damage to the ecosystems in countries like Indonesia, Vietnam etc where the beautiful reticulated pythons are needed as a natural form of vermin (rat) control and pesticide management to prevent illness spreading amongst an already disadvantaged and exploited population in some of the world’s poorest nations.
To be a member of the first world and plead ignorance is unacceptable. To be a tertiary educated member of the first world and plead ignorance is simply unbelievable. To be a human rights lawyer and wear snake skin, harvested through the exploitation of third world labour, contributing to damaging the already shrinking habitat and vermin management of the delicate ecosystems in countries such as Vietnam and Indonesia – wearing an animal that had to be beaten and nailed by its head, then suffocated with water whilst it is skinned alive, in order to preserve its intricate patterning for you to wear, in your vanity-filled quest for clothes of luxury and exoticism – that is simply base.
This obsession with snake skin is barbaric, medieval and cruel – it is a practice that belongs in the dark ages. It has no place on an educated, professional and sophisticated woman’s neck. It has no place on a prominent human rights lawyer’s neck.
Forget the animal rights for a moment and think of the exploitation of the people working in jungles for $2 a month to catch the pythons so a lawyer in New York can wear the python as a collar – how far removed is Amal from reality? How far has her conscience regressed in her vanity? Why this disconnect between her brain and her pursuit to be a fashion princess????
Please, help me someone – how does one wear wildlife? And indeed, with such nonchalance?
My stomach churns and out of respect for you Nati, I am withholding more strong words in describing Amal’s lack of sense. I will only say: Disgusting. Immoral. Hypocritical. Base.

I will leave my 2 cents on this topic. I truly regret that Amal doesn’t have more of a sense of “Animal Rights”…since she is so interested in “Human Rights”. I have written to her and asked her to view some undercover video that was taken by PETA, which is the People for Ethical Treatment of Animals group that works to stop the suffering of animals inflicted by humans.
Do you realize that in China dogs are being skinned alive for their skins in the “Leather Goods” trade. Most likely your gloves and cat toys made in China are made of dog skin? (REALLY) These dogs suffer/die so the Chinese can produce “made in China leather products” Don’t believe me…go to the PETA sight and type in Chinese Leather Trade. You will see for yourself. It will make you cry to see the fear/terror/suffering these dogs endure.
Furthermore…several Southeast Asian countries capture dogs and the dogs suffer cruel deaths so that their meat can be eaten. She could be such a powerful source for the suffering of animals.
Such a shame that she appears to have no interest in ending the suffering of animals. I am 67 years old, still working, and I contribute money each month to organizations that help animal suffering. IMAGINE what Amal could do with her powerful position and money???????????

Nati,
I am in Australia and I thank you for your prompt response. I am aware we are on very different timelines and you are in the northern hemisphere.
Disappointment and anger, disgust and horror – I cannot get the right words out to describe how backwards Amal is in her conscience. Luxus has no morality – true, but then by extension, neither does Amal – the clothing industry would not harvest wildlife and exploit third world people if the market was not there and if people like Amal simply did not wear it. I don’t. You don’t. Amal does. That is a conscious decision. She has enormous responsibility in fuelling it’s proliferation. If I’m not wrong, she has those snake skin boots too.
Nati, what does it mean if you represent all the high profile past-presidents guilty of human rights violations, when you cannot control your own greed for fashion?
I wish you all the best with your blog which I have enjoyed immensely, but I have better things to do than follow Amal’s career and fashion.

No aw – to those who are given much, much more will be expected. None of us in the first world – and certainly not a high profile person who has the means (and indeed is intelligent enough) to do otherwise – has the ‘right’ to translate her fashion desires into third world exploitation and wildlife harvesting.
The privilege of being in the first world means we have a responsibility to those who do not. Isn’t that what the UN Conventions on human rights are all about?
However, I would like to thank you for your comment as it allows me some insight into the mentality that might have allowed Amal the justification of such practices – and it speaks of entitlement and individualism with disregard for the collective good. Educated women should not endorse this.
And for an educated high profile woman, who alleges to champion human rights – who alleges to represent the rights of those who cannot represent themselves – and who has a worldwide platform to espouse her views (e.g. ‘Je suis Charlie’ badge style) – there is no role, ever, ever, ever, for python collars. The damage in these photos is immeasurable to the families surviving on the fringes of jungles. Who is Amal that ‘she should wear what she likes’ and ignore the repercussions on those she has affected to do so? You are correct in saying she has a choice and she just exercised it in the most baseful and horrendous way in violating other people’s human rights.

Thank you Rose, I did.
PETA has repeatedly protested the python trade and the organisation continues to call out celebrities for wearing python – Beyonce, Kim Kardashian, Reese Witherspoon, Kylie Minogue and Ashley Olsen have all been cited – they can now sadly add the human rights lawyer Amal Clooney to the batch of celebrities who feel they are excluded from making environmentally and sociologically responsible decisions regarding their wardrobe choices.
Snakeskin is a luxury wardrobe item, it is a want, not a need. Even if animal rights were not an issue here (and they are), there are significant human rights and illegal issues involved in the trafficking and harvesting of wildlife skins.
A particularly pernicious element of the trade in snakeskins is that it is largely a black market, unregulated and illegal industry in many places – not because of conservation issues or animal rights – but because there are human exploitation issues involved – people who are paid meagre earnings to bring in snakes so fashion houses can make exorbitant profits.
Amal is obsessively devoted to being a fashionista and presenting and setting the latest trends. There is no problem with that in itself – but the wearing of a python collar (or python shoes) by a human rights lawyer driving the trade and advertising it proudly (in spite of Californian laws prohibiting its sale) – I have a massive problem with that.
I hope PETA calls her out on it.

I really don’t like that Amal chose to wear python. I would never wear snakeskin or real fur. I’m trying to imagine how Amal justifies wearing these items. She’s a smart woman with a very analyitical mind. I will assume she eats meat. Unless it’s organic the conditions in which animals are treated before they get to the slaughterhouse are not very humane. She wears leather shoes and carries leather handbags. I doubt that the conditions in which animals are treated prior to being skinned are less than humane. She may see it as hypocritical to condone some inhumane practices and not others. I really don’t know.
I do want to give her the benefit of the doubt. I wish we knew more about her and the kind of person she really is. I don’t want to condemn her outright because of some of her fashion choices. Amal has become a public personality. Without George she make news on her own now. But whether she likes it or not her fashion choices are driving her image right now. Her brilliance as a lawyer and her high powered cases she handles become the second paragraph in the media coverage. Is she ok with that? Maybe she doesn’t care and doesn’t read the opinions formed about her .
I’ve always admired Amal as a self-confident, strong minded and independent woman with a great sense of style. I don’t want that to change but I do think if she doesn’t want her fashion to drive her image she needs to change the perception.

I’m sorry if that came across as rude to you Belladonna – it is my frustration at people not calling a spade a spade – a very Australian preoccupation ;).
Australia as you know borders Southeast Asia. SE Asia is ‘rich’ in tropical forests, bio-diversity, pythons – and corruption – but because it is ‘poor’ in its human rights records, it is a global hub for the illegal wildlife trade. Amal would know this.
Snakes are bludgeoned on the back of the skull using a metal pipe or a hammer (anything heavy and accessible) and hung on wooden rafters or a tree using a hook or a nail (or anything sharp and accessible) which is inserted through the lower jaw – to allow the mouth to be opened so a hose pipe can be inserted under the skin – the anus is blocked by the way. The snake is then filled with water, like a balloon, in order to stretch the skin away from the snake muscle – to make it easier to remove whole because this brings more money (a pair of $2000 pants can be made from one large female python). Using a Stanley knife, an incision is then made in the snake’s belly skin and drawn through the length of the body and then the skin is peeled off whole. The snake is alive. Cognizant, feeling.
As you can see, it takes simple utensils and a crude and unsophisticated method to feed a poor family for a month in SE Asia.
Amal would know this.

You are making more for the preservation of nature than Amal, that is for sure, so tap yourselves on the shoulder and be proud. That is the way to be; a responsible, kind and sensible human being. It is also very very smart to think that if we destroy nature we will be destroying ourselves. To wear fur or skins is so primitive as a practice, it is never appealing and it should never had been take in as fashion statement. I find it rather ugly!
It is disappointing how such an intelligent and world traveled woman such as Amal seems completely;y nonchalant to such causes. I do credit her for not having ever claimed to be a world saver, or to be here to do more than just cash in for her work as a lawyer. Human rights practice is just another branch of law, like civil, criminal, etc, and it has nothing to do with being a world compassionate concerned human being. Amal has certainly never claimed to be that and, for the price her outfits goes for, i hope she does charge very high fees, otherwise her life style would suffer. So i guess we must only look at her with compassion and hope that one day she will wake up and choose to be more than just a lawyer and a fashion billboard.

I hope to leave you all in peace now.
Nati, thank you. I have enjoyed following your blog from its inception.
We all have different thresholds for what we find acceptable and not acceptable behaviour in celebrities. And, we all have different expectations for ethical and moral behaviours in those that are educated in upholding our laws. For all of us women interested in our appearance, who find fun in dressing up and enjoy fashion, we all have different levels of vanity that will drive our different choices of clothing – and it is these choices that allows us to express our individuality.
We do, in every sphere (our behaviour, following the law, wearing fashion), have a responsibility to not affect the less fortunate in the world, who often enable us, because of their deprived livelihoods, this privilege of ‘expressing our individuality’ through fashion — we should not lie to ourselves, our wardrobe choices do tell us much about ourselves! And that is more true for those people who can materially afford more choice.
Do not ever doubt that “a picture is worth a 1000 words”. Do not doubt that Amal’s character can be read in the pictures posted by Nati on this blog. The pictures tell the story of a human rights lawyer and her choices. Her choices are at times fun and imaginative – other times they are corrupt, reflective of greed, selfishness and extreme vanity.
I have made a full circle from admiring Amal to strongly disliking all she represents.
Sadly, this ends my journey following Amal and thus following your blog.

George’s PR time should get on the bandwagon and caution against such a blatant disregard in order to play dress-up. Undoubtedly, she has enough of an ego to trivialize the public’s concern, however, let’s defend those who are defenseless.

The designers share the shame, absolutely, but the bottom line is, they are feeding a demand for (engangered) animal skins, and Amal is now a very visible and shameful part of that demand.
Buying/wearing these products perpetuates the idea that these ‘fabrics’ are stylish, fashionable and desireable and send out the apalling message that, in this instance, pythons are seen as nothing more than just another fashion ingredient, there to be used and horribly abused in order to satisfy the high-end luxury goods market.
Python skins belong only on pythons. If the demand stops, the designers stop. End of.

Some women won’t use leather handbags for the same reason. We all need to be careful of not being hypocritical and overly judgemental. If any of us had a friend who wore fur or animal skins would you drop that person as a friend simply for that reason. Maybe some would because their convictions are that strong.

I agree with some of your points, but we need more positivity. That is her money and she spents it as she wants. NYU Law manuel is for diplomats, perhaps a new projet in her career.

She doesn’t buy these clothes. Some are gifted, some are loaned. I’ll keep the identity of my employer under wraps, but suffice to say that the company I work for has loaned her some items of clothing which I have seen on this blog. It’s hardly her own cash being spent — designers benefit hugely from the free advertising Amal provides.

I think Amal dresses for herself. She has a very strong sense of her style and had even before George. She pushes the envelope sometimes. And I don’t like some of her outfits. But hey she can dress anyway she likes. It’s her business. I too wish she would mix off the rack and designer pieces more often. Maybe she does but we don’t see it. We see her photographed out and about less than 1% of time. Her net worth is about $2million. Read that somewhere. She’s used to buying expensive clothes. It’s obviously a passion for her.
There’s a really informative article by NY Times posted yesterday online “How Amal Clooney Took New York”. Really good read and a bit insightful into who she is. Google her or George and you can find it.

It is a pity that the fashion industry doesn’t use the Burmese pythons that have established themselves as an invasive species in the Florida Everglades thanks to pet owners abandoning them.

When I saw the pics I thought : great look!
When I realized the snakeskin I was shocked.
Shame on Gucci, shame on AC!
Sorry.
When I was pretty young I dreamt of designer clothes, the Vogue was my bible.
But when I discovered the often egoistic, brainless and heartless background of fashion, I changed my opinion.
Probably in autumn, winter I can’t follow this blog, because seeing pics Amal Clooney wearing real fur makes me sad and angry.
Thank you so much Downunder and writer of similiar posts!!
Just my 2 cents, maybe a bit late …
