George opted for a traditional look with a black tux, matching dress shoes and a watch with a silver face.

Amal’s black dress marks a departure from the lighter hues she has favored over the past year. Earlier in September, she wore one of 2024’s hottest shades — butter yellow — in a lace Atelier Versace gown for the Venice Film Festival premiere of her husband’s latest film, “Wolfs.” Last December, she wore a yellow dress to the premiere of “The Boys in the Boat,” a look inspired by Versace’s spring 1993 collection. At last year’s Albies, she chose another Versace gown, this one white and covered in crystals.

Named after anti-apartheid hero Justice Albie Sachs, The Albies aim to highlight the efforts of individuals pursuing justice in perilous situations.
