The best kinds of monikers are those shared with luxury fashion houses. So, when six-time Grammy-winning artist Céline Dion stepped out in Manhattan on June 18 in a track shirt from French Maison Celine, we had to tell you about the Céline X Celine spotting.
Taking style cues from the early 2010s, Dion, 56, teamed the athleisure-adjacent shirt with skinny-cut blue denim jeans, a tan leather belt, an olive-hued Chanel flap bag and tri-coloured strappy heels.

The outing followed the premiere of the French Canadian powerhouse’s new documentary I Am: Celine Dion, a 102-minute look into her inimitable career and the first time she speaks about her battle with stiff-person syndrome, a rare neurological disorder that causes painful muscle spasms. In an elegant silk white set Dion was all smiles as she joined one of her children, René-Charles Angelil, at Alice Tully Hall in New York.
Of course, Dion’s street style has always been worthy of our attention, especially since collaborating with image architect Law Roach during the Spring/Summer 2016 season of Paris Haute Couture Week. (Her Vetements hoodie featuring the Titanic movie poster was instantly deserving of fashion darling status.)
“That was one of the first times fashion really kind of broke the internet,” Roach told The BoF Podcast on June 17. “I had [the sweatshirt] for so long and I thought it was going to be silly… One day I placed it on a table that would be in [Céline’s] eyeline when she walked into the room. She walked up and goes, ‘What is this?’ I said, ‘It’s Vetements, it’s this new streetwear brand.
“And she was like, ‘Well, when am I going to wear it?’”
Though her public appearances aren’t as frequent as we’d like given her recent health struggles, we’re delighted to see Dion bravely return to the limelight with such aplomb.
I Am: Celine Dion will be available to stream on Amazon Prime on June 25.
