Celine Dion made a fashion statement 20 years ago and she did it again recently; she wore her blazer backwards. The 51 year-old singer turned heads at the 1999 Academy Awards when she wore a white satin blazer backwards, and recently, she stepped out repeating the same trend. She was photographed in New York wearing a taupe coloured two-piece set. It featured wide-legged culottes and a blazer jacket. The blazer was on backwards and was secured from behind by just two buttons. From the front, it was cinched near the waist with a bit of orange duct tape,

The singer accessorised the look with chained sunglasses, orange pumps and handbag and tied her into a high ballerina-style bun. Dion, speaking to People in 2017 said that the iconic Oscars look was a game-changer at that time. “When I wore that look, yes it was at the Oscars, and when I wore that, everyone was wearing dresses, not pants,” she said. “I was the only one with pants in a backward suit from Galliano and if I would do this today it would work. It was avant-garde at the time. And it doesn’t matter, you just have to assume what you wear, you wear, and I did,” she added.

Celine Dion has been known to have an edgy dressing sense since the 90s. She was ahead of her times. Whether it was patchwork jeans and cowboy boots combination or all white pant suits, Celine dressed like it was 2019 in the 1990s. She has also done unusual pairings such tracksuits with dressy pumps, baseball-inspired night suits and sequinned tops with acid-washed jeans. She revolutionised the pants and blazer look for women, wearing them in out-of-the-box colours, combinations and styles. In early 2019, she was pictured wearing an anorak-style yellow coat with a heavy bizarre blazer-sweater hybrid. She wore it with futuristic-looking sneakers and black shades.
