Celine Dion debuted dress later worn by Kylie Jenner at Malibu wedding
Celine Dion first wore the cream runway version of a cutout dress at the 2003 Billboard Music Awards, while Kylie Jenner later appeared in a black version of the same gown at a Malibu wedding.
Celine Dion debuted the original cream-colored runway version of a cutout dress at the 2003 Billboard Music Awards, pairing it with Marilyn Monroe-style platinum curls, diamond drop earrings and metallic stilettos. Kylie Jenner chose a black, backless iteration of the same gown for the Malibu wedding of Woods and Towns last weekend, complying with the event’s all-black dress code and completing the look with a 14-carat Rahaminov Diamonds ring and Christian Louboutin sandals with clear PVC straps.
Social-media users contrasted the two appearances, praising Dion’s glamorous rendition and critiquing Jenner’s version as more TikTok-oriented. Jenner was not alone; her friend Hailey Bieber attended the same wedding in an embellished black Versace dress that Naomi Campbell originally modeled on the runway. In addition to her musical achievements, the 58-year-old singer was recently highlighted as Harper’s Bazaar’s September cover star, photographed in Bvlgari jewelry and designer outfits from Gucci, Valentino, Balenciaga and Saint Laurent.
