Washington D.C [U.S.A], May 7 : Finally the countdown is over and the most awaited fashionable event Met Gala 2019 has begun. The star-studded event is witnessing celebrities looking their stylish best at the red carpet. Dazzling her way to the red carpet was Celine Dion, who looked marvellous in a glitzy metallic bodysuit.
The 'My Heart Will Go On' singer stepped out for the annual event on Monday in an Oscar de la Renta metallic bodysuit with fringe-detailing and a plunging neckline, as reported by E-News.
Dion's hand-beaded look took over 3,000 hours to make with 52 master embroiderers working on it and weighs over 22 pounds, according to the designer's official Twitter account. Dion, 51, paired her look with an extravagant headpiece.
Speaking to E! News on the carpet, Dion admitted that she initially didn't understand Monday's theme. "At first I was a little bit confused when I heard 'Camp,'" she told the outlet.
I thought it meant 'camping.' We're going camping! We're going to be at the Met and everyone is going to stay and sleep all night together. But, no."
According to People, Celine made her first appearance at the star-studded Gala in 2017, when she arrived wearing a custom Atelier Versace gown teamed with origami-inspired headpiece. But her wearing a stop-and-stare outfit was just the beginning and now she is back again to steal the show with her shimmery outfit.
This year the theme for the Met Gala is "Camp: Notes on Fashion," which is inspired by a seminal 1964 essay by Susan Sontag, in which she describes the phenomenon as something that she shouldn't be talking about: "To talk about Camp is therefore to betray it."
The gala is being held inside New York City's Metropolitan Museum of Art.
