For over 25 years, Céline Dion, has inspired to reach our hand up to the sky and believe with her divine voice that no matter what our hearts will go on, despite that that particular song didn't debut until the late 90's. But we digress, because beyond her gift of music, the Canadian-born singer has shown us that she also knows a thing or two about fashion. But like for real how could you not, when Law Roach is your current stylist, though she was slaying everything from red carpets to street style way before that.
Over time Céline's style has evolved with her, however one thing has remained the same. Whether she's in dramatic over-the-top couture gowns or sporting effortlessly chic vibes, her looks have always been, and will always be — ICONIC.
So join us in looking through a little list we put together featuring 6 of Céline Dion's most iconic red carpet looks. And might we suggest you do so while listening to Audacy's exclusive So Soft radio station — keeping it easy like Sunday morning, with soft hits of the '70s and '80s including Queen Céline herself, Phil Collins, Fleetwood Mac, Bee Gees, Air Supply, and more.
In no particular order — here they are.

It's giving Vegas Show Girl eleganza. For her second Met Gala, Céline appeared in this elaborately designed Oscar de la Renta ensemble, complete with a headpiece crafted by London-based milliner, Noel Stewart. Apparently, the 22-pound fringed bodysuit took over 3,000 hours to create.

Dare we say the most iconic moment of all. Céline Dion showed up to the '99 Academy Awards wearing a white tuxedo blazer… backwards. The unforgettable John Galliano look was topped off with a hat and black rectangular sunglasses. Dion's avant-garde outfit was thought of as particularly fearless because she went against the grain, during a time women were still expected to wear traditional dresses while walking the red carpet. Seriously… such a vibe.

Let's keep it 100, Céline absolutely ATE THIS! We're not exaggerating when we say that when she arrived at the 2017 Billboard Music Awards in this Stephane Rolland Haute Couture dress featuring those larger-than-life sleeves and a plunging neckline, it was literally EVERYTHING.

Dion looked red hot at the 1993 American Music Awards in her cut-out Versace gown. From Gianni Versace's Fall 1992 Ready-to-Wear collection, which was provocatively titled Miss S&M. Back then it was provocative, now it just iconic.

In 2017, Dion showed us once again that she is the queen of couture when she arrived at the Grammys in this full-length, glittering emerald Zuhair Murad's Spring 2017 Couture collection gown — which she paired with green Gucci heels — ugh we live for it!

Obsessed! Dion arrived to the 1997 Academy Awards looking like a couture shooting star. In head-to-toe Chanel, designed by Karl Lagerfeld of course (RIP). During the ceremony she performed "Because You Love Me" in this same look, because umm a wardrobe change would have been an absolute crime. Slaayy Kween, YAASSS!
Fun Fact: The necklace (also Chanel) was made from 656 diamonds with a price tag of hundreds of thousands of dollars.
