Céline Dion Dazzles in Pink Gown at Elie Saab Fashion Show
Céline Dion made a stunning appearance at the 1001 Seasons of Elie Saab fashion show on Wednesday, November 13, in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The five-time Grammy award winner performed to celebrate the Lebanese designer's 45-year fashion journey.
Dion commanded attention on stage, showcasing her glamorous style. She wore a dazzling pink, sequined floor-length gown while showcasing her hit songs. Reports indicate that she concluded her performance with her famous tracks "The Power of Love" from 1993 and "I’m Alive" from 2002.
Dion, 56, styled her hair in a sleek low bun. She adorned herself with silver, sparkly earrings, rings, and bangles, enhancing her glamorous look. Early per The Standard, she began singing "The Power of Love" as the models paraded the runway. Following this, she transitioned seamlessly to "I’m Alive." Dion then walked off stage with the designer, Elie Saab, who is 60.
Captivating two ensembles, Dion arrived on the red carpet in a pink attire featuring large ruffles on each shoulder and a sheer cape. Her stylist, Law Roach, shared a moment from the event on Instagram: "I’m back with The Queen @celinedion in Riyadh for @eliesaabworld 1001 Seasons 📸 @ranifawazofficial."
Backstage, Dion was photographed alongside fellow performers of the evening, including Jennifer Lopez, Camila Cabello, and Halle Berry, along with designer Saab.
Dion's performance in Riyadh marked her return to the stage after announcing her stiff-person syndrome diagnosis in 2022. Earlier in July, she sang Edith Piaf's classic "Hymne A L'Amour" at the 2024 Paris Olympics Opening Ceremony. Her official live version was released in October.
For that memorable performance, Dion wore a custom-designed gown by Italian designer Maria Grazia Chiuri. This stunning dress included intricate details and featured 1,640 feet of beaded fringing. The Canadian icon expressed her gratitude online the day following the event.
"Thanks to everyone at @paris2024, @olympics, and @dior who helped make this dream come true," she noted on Instagram. "And now, it’s already time to go! I will miss you Paris! – Celine xx...".
