Photographic Evidence That Celine Dion Has Always Been a Style Icon
Canadian megastar Celine Dion has been in the spotlight since she was a child singing in her family's piano bar. A career spanning four decades lends itself to 1) a biopic, and 2) a sprawling wardrobe. Since her first performances, she's learned a few things about fashion, and has never been afraid to push sartorial boundaries. From leather catsuits to trompe l'oeil dresses, Dion has proved herself to be one of the greatest, boldest avant-garde style icons of our time.
The singer turned heads in a white feathered minidress, silver heels, and yellow drop earrings at the Valentino Haute Couture show during Paris Fashion Week.
For this cheeky look, Dion paired an "I Love Paris Hilton" tee with a miniskirt, oversized blazer, and simple pumps. And if you look closely, you'll see that she's wearing the Heart of the Ocean necklace from Titanic. I-con-ic.
Dion looked simply angelic in an ivory draped minidress during Paris Fashion Week. Her accessories were small yet mighty and her gold strappy heels added the perfect finishing touch.
Paying homage to the Slinky, Dion stepped out in a sheer, 3-D printed, trompe l'oeil (which means "trick of the eye" in French) gown for Paris Haute Couture Week.
Celine certainly does athleisure better than we do. For this monochrome look, she paired a catsuit with Chanel bling, a Chanel chain belt, and black ankle-strap heels.
The singer arrived to the 2019 Met Gala in a stunning glittery leotard and headpiece, hitting the nail on the head for this year's theme, "CAMP: Notes on Fashion."
For her "Courage" world tour announcement, Celine chose a black wrap dress with intricate beading and a pair of black pumps.
A power suit lends itself to a power pose. Dion celebrated being named L'Oreal's global spokeswoman with this multicolored suit, the perfect balance of whimsy and business.
Proving herself to be the Queen of layering, Dion paired a bright red sweater with a boxy blazer and reversible neoprene overalls. She finished off the look with classic red pumps and sunnies.
Perhaps a nod to Billie Eilish's signature oversized wardrobe, Dion stepped out in Paris wearing a boxy grey blazer, bright yellow dress, and chunky sneakers.
For a night out in Paris, Dion chose a plunging navy jupmsuit with gorgeous exaggerated shoulder detailing. She added a matching hat, sleek black booties, and sunglasses, of course.
Celine proves that beige doesn't have to be boring. At the Valentino fashion show, she wore a flowy cut-out overcoat with mauve pumps and a matching purse. She topped it off with gold accessories.
The singer stuns in a grey suit. The plunging neckline, exaggerated shoulder silhouette, and relaxed-fit trousers are an impossibly stylish take on the standard suit. The gold accessories add a gilded touch.
You simply can't go wrong with a black and white ensemble. During Paris Fashion Week, the singer wore a pussy bow blouse with wide leg trousers, a sleek black clutch, and pearl earrings.

Never one to hold back (vocally and sartorially), Dion wore a Athenian-inspired skin-baring gown on the Billboard Music Awards red carpet.
The singer performed on The Today Show wearing pink low-rise flare jeans (remember those?), a lace crop top, and a pastel yellow crop jacket. And we can't forget about the gold hoops!
Celine stepped out in a strapless fuchsia gown for the VH1 Divas Duets concert. The simple draping of the fabric make this dress ultra-flattering, and with few accessories, it has nothing to compete for your attention with.
The singer certainly knows how to make all-black look interesting. She paired a bralette with a lace tie-front blazer and velvet cropped pants. Her strappy heels are the cherry on top.
Sometimes simple is better, and this look is proof. Celine styled a shimmery strapless dress with minimal accessories. When the flirty fabric of the dress glides with each of her dance moves, who needs tons of baubles?
Another skin-baring dress from Dion, and once again, it did not disappoint. The flattering draping and strappy heels are gorgeous, and her signature sunglasses are always a delight.
Aviators and a velour tracksuit? It must be 2002. While Dion is known for taking fashion risks, this wasn't one of them. She wore this iconic combo for the VH1 Divas Las Vegas rehearsal.

This timeless embroidered jumpsuit looks simple from afar, but upon closer inspection you'll see the beautiful floral detailing and sequined stripes.
Celine and her late husband, René Angéli, looked stunning at the Pavarotti and Friends event back in 1999. Her black ball gown was anything but boring with detailed ruching and a ruffled crop jacket.
For a concert in Montreal, Canada, Celine wore a flattering grey-blue matching set. The trousers are all business, whereas the belly-baring top is adorned with gems and beads to relax the look.
Slated as one of her biggest fashion risks, this white suit certainly pushed boundaries. The oversized trousers contrast the adorably tiny clutch, and the matching hat completed the look.
Celine looked extra cozy in this autumn portrait. Her nude dress complements the long caramel cardigan, and we suddenly find ourselves wishing for fall.

The singer never seems to turn down an offer for a trendy jumpsuit. This camel-colored pick pairs well with her metallic blazer.

If you couldn't tell by now, Dion has a penchant for sparkles. This plunging silver gown turned heads, and the added celestial necklace and earrings made the singer shine even more.
Celine wore this shimmery top and maxi-skirt combo in Birmingham, United Kingdom. Her lack of jewelry and accessories makes this simple outfit even more elegant.
An admirable quality of Dion's style is how versatile it is. She goes from angelic to edgy in a pinch, and nobody questions it. Here, she chose a skintight black synthetic catsuit for a performance in France.
Another 90s leather moment in the books. This time, Celine wore form-fitting leather pants and a leather single-breasted trench coat. This combined with her blown-out hair give us major Harley-Davidson vibes.

A very 90s buttoned vest and trouser combo is a perfectly fine outfit, but the leather jacket gives this look a major upgrade. Dion's style has certainly gotten more adventurous since the earlier days of her career!
