Meet Amal Clooney's lookalike sister -- Tala Alamuddin!
The question on everyone's minds is: How did we not know about her sooner?!
While Amal, 39, is known for her successful career as a human rights lawyer and, obviously, being George Clooney's wife, her big sister has stepped out of her shadow by making her mark on the fashion industry.

Tala, 42, recently launched her fashion and jewelry brand, Totally Tala, in Asia, but she's looking to expand to the rest of the world. While it's safe to say that genes of ambition run strong in the Alamuddin family, that's not all that these two siblings have in common -- they could totally pass as twins!
A quick look at Tala's Instagram feed shows that she looks just like her sister. From their long, raven tresses to their svelte figures, there's no denying that Amal and Tala are related. Just like Amal, Tala looks effortlessly stylish everywhere she goes. The fashion designer isn't afraid to rock bold prints or vivacious colors, while flaunting her striking figure every chance she gets.

The duo is definitely giving famous sister acts like Gigi and Bella Hadid and Kendall and Kylie Jenner a run for their money in the fashion department.
Tala is based in Singapore, which explains why she has remained out of the spotlight. Outside of her fashion career, she is a fixture in the Singapore socialite scene, often organizing charity events.
She got married to an Italian businessman, named Nico, just last year. The brunette beauty has two kids of her own from a previous marriage.
With the arrival of Amal's twins, Alexander and Ella, we're sure that Tala has been giving her little sister some tips on how to survive sleepless nights!

Amal Clooney is known for her impressive career as a human rights lawyer, as well as being the glamorous wife of George.

But not to be outdone, her lookalike sister Tala Alamuddin is now stepping out from her shadow by setting up her own fashion and jewellery brand.

The 42-year-old, who is based in Singapore, has already launched Totally Tala in Asia, but is now looking to expand into Europe and beyond.

Her ambitions will no doubt be helped by having the perfect ambassador in Amal, who is a big fan of her work and has already been pictured wearing some of her designs.

Tala is already styling some of Singapore’s biggest names and says her brand is all about being 'Totally fun. Totally wild. Totally Tala.'

In her Instagram bio, she says her label offers: 'Statement accessories from the eccentric heart, soul, & mind of designer and enfant terrible Tala Alamuddin.’


The mother-of-two regularly travels around the world, jetting to Cannes, London, New York, and Italy to visit Amal and her newborn twins in the past month alone.

While in such exotic destinations, she makes sure to share photographs with her 18,200 Instagram followers, from skiing in Japan to drinking cocktails in St Tropez.

Amal is a big fan of her work and has already been pictured wearing some of her designs, including a fringed tan bag (pictured in October 2016) 

Tala has two young daughters and got married for a second time to an Italian businessman called Nico last year. 
Before this, she was wed to Lebanese businessman Nagi Hamiyeh, who is a senior executive at Singapore’s largest holding company.

She first made headlines in 2015 when she upstaged her younger sister Amal on several occasions at high profile functions, which drew comparisons to Pippa Middleton, the younger sister of the Duchess of Cambridge.

Since her debut in the spotlight, Tala has been working hard on her new brand, where she designs unique, one-off clothes, handbags and jewellery.

However, it’s not only design that she has got involved in - Tala also spends her time organising events and sponsors Miss Singapore, the country’s Miss World event.

Tala, who also shares two half-brothers Samer and Ziad with Amal, graduated from Richmond American International University in London in 1995. 

She has been a regular on the socialite scene in Asia, and also visited George’s yacht and home in Lake Como.
Tala is also known to be a fitness fanatic, completing the Osim Sundown Marathon last year with a time of 5 hours 25 minutes.

Donnamarie wrote:Well yes I would think most women don't own their own businesses.  They work for others in the business world.  There aren't enough women centric owned businesses.  As a woman I applaud seeing many more women breaking out and being successful in their own right. Tala developed her own business brand and seems passionate about it.  Im not going to knock that ... even if I don't personally care for her style.

I'm surprised I even have to defend Tala Alamuddin.  I hardly know anything about her.  Despite the fact I don't like her fashion I just don't appreciate the level of judgment against this woman.  She has a business and is promoting her business just like any other business person would do. 

Me wonders how much this negative talk about Tala has to do with Amal ... and even Baria.  It seems some on COH have been quite negative on all the Alamuddin women.
