When one thinks of Celine Dion, a certain Titanic theme song springs to mind. It was never considered cool to have her entire back catalogue of music (no shame) but when Dion’s beloved husband Renee passed away last year – she had known him since she was 12 – ?the world looked at her with a newfound level of respect as she publically and gracefully grieved the loss of the love of her life. And another way of coping with the grief was to embrace?knee-high boots and haute?couture fashion – she did in life what we watched Carrie in SATC do with aplomb; use fashion to help heal heartbreak.
And now, she’s the best thing about Paris Fashion Week. Clapping, whooping, posing on the hood of cars, working the front row next to the more demure Anna Wintour, she is pulling out all the stops. She’s a showgirl (and a record-breaking performer – currently the most profitable music act to ever have worked in Las Vegas) and the pure joy she brings to every designer item she sports is a delight?to behold. She is unashamedly herself, glowing and happy, with Dior handbags in tow.
Let us take a leaf out of Celine Dion’s book and dress; devil may care,?any way we damn please.
