This year’s Met Gala paid homage to Japanese designer Rei Kawakubo, who founded fashion label Comme des Garçons. Celine Dion totally embodied the avant-garde theme as she joined Zendaya, Rihanna, Bella Hadid and Madonna at the gala.

The 49-year-old singer stepped out in a black gown with contrasting silver panels and a sweeping train. It also had short sleeves, a pleated asymmetrical bodice, and a voluminous skirt.

Celine wore the “Paloma” black satin pumps from Charlotte Olympia that you can purchase at Net-A-Porter. These shoes have almond toes, satin-covered platforms and heels, and a subtle fan detail on the back.

In addition, these pumps feature towering heels and the label’s signature gold spider web logo on the soles.

Her entire look is a stark contrast to her usual red carpet ensembles, which are always elegant and sophisticated. This was a fashion-forward moment for Celine and a successful Met Gala outing.
