C��line Dion se al��a con Nordstrom para vender su primera l��nea de bolsos

La cantante canadiense Celine Dion dej�� temporalmente el Coliseo del Hotel Caesars Palace de Las Vegas, para llevar su tour a Francia. Su gira por la capital gala justo ha coincidido con la semana de la alta costura y la diva canadiense ha protagonizado una serie de fotos en Instagram bajo el t��tulo de #CelineTakesCouture (Celine toma la Alta Costura, en castellano). Las im��genes han sido compartidas en el perfil de Vogue, la biblia de la moda, y una de ella ha causado m��s revuelo. Sentada, completamente desnuda, con las piernas cruzadas, Dion a sus 49 a?os se ha dejado retratar por la editora de medios de Vogue Sophia Li.

��Aqu�� hay un desnudo para reflexionar, mientras Celine Dion se cambia entre espect��culos��, comienza el post compartido por la revista que tiene m��s de 118.000 "me gusta". En ��l, adem��s, la publicaci��n cuenta c��mo elige la int��rprete sus vestidos. "Las casas env��an sus propuestas al hogar de Dion en Nevada. Antes de que las prendas est��n terminadas, se afinan los ��ltimos detalles en su taller privado. Armani Prive, Schiaparelli, Giambattista Valli, Versace ... son solo algunos de los dise?adores que la visten". Vogue tambi��n resalta que en los ��ltimos cinco a?os, la cantante ha usado vestidos y trajes haute couture en todos sus shows, sin excepci��n alguna.

Here's a little naked fact to ponder while Celine Dion changes looks between shows: for the past five years she has worn haute couture near exclusively for her own performances (in Las Vegas and on her current "mini-tour" of Europe). She performs a minimum two hours a night, five or six nights a week, dancing and curtseying and generally gesticulating sans abandon, in handmade, hand-beaded delicacies designed solely to walk a catwalk or a carpet (and often with handlers). For Celine's orders, the houses send teams to Nevada for typically three fittings, before the garments are ultimately finished in her local, private atelier. Armani Prive, Schiaparelli, Giambattista Valli, Versace...only a partial list. Everyone, basically. In Vegas, Velcro panels are added to allow for her ribcage to expand or for a quick outfit change. Micro straps of elasticized chiffon prevent a slit from becoming a sloppy situation mid-squat. Shoes��always heels, never platforms��are ordered one size smaller (she is normally a 38) and refitted with metal shanks. Says Celine, "We have to make haute couture industrial." And, more enigmatically: "The clothes follow me; I do not follow the clothes." Which is to say: the haute couture, with all its fragility and handcraft, has to perform professionally for Ms. Dion. And privately as well. Years ago, Celine bought a classic little black dress from the Christian Dior atelier when the house was overseen by John Galliano. It is simple, falling to mid calf, and narrow as can be with just a hint of stretch. It requires a minimum of jewelry, a statement bracelet or perhaps one of the major diamond rings she designed with her late husband Rene Angelil: two pear cuts set in a wide pave band, or two hearts of diamond and emerald abstractly interlocking, on a cushion of yet more diamonds. This LBD forces you to walk one foot in front of the other. This is a dress Celine knows well and clearly loves, the simplest evocation of the private luxury of couture and the total antithesis of the red carpet hoopla that attends the union of fashion and celebrity. It is also the dress she wore to Rene's funeral. #CelineTakesCouture Photo by @sophfei.

Uno de los secretos revelados en este post, es que todos los trajes que las grandes firmas realizan para Dion deben llevar velcro. Esto seg��n explican, permite que cambiarse sea r��pido y adem��s deja que su caja tor��cica se expanda lo necesario.

"Tenemos que hacer que la alta costura sea industrial", dice la canadiense. Y a?ade: "La ropa me sigue, yo no sigo la ropa". Es decir: que las firmas de lujo tienen que crearle piezas que se adapten a sus necesidades pues ella no ser�� quien cambi�� para lucir una pieza.

En las otras im��genes de la serie Celine Dion se deja ver saliendo de un coche, saludando a los paparazis en el Petit Palais, en uno de los balcones de Place Vend?me, en otra rodeada de zapatos de tac��n y bolsos de lujo, y la ��ltima es una instant��nea de ella minutos antes de que comience su show en AccorHotels Arena en Bercy.

In the minutes before her show at the AccorHotels Arena at Bercy, Celine Dion is presented with an award by the French division of Sony for her 2016 francophone release Encore un soir. Dion thanks the clutch of executives assembled avec champagne and macaroons in the green room (hell, this is Paris after all) and reminds them quietly that this award means even so much more because the recording was her first without Rene and made during the most raw and difficult of times. Now it is a "diamond," meaning it has sold over 500k in France. Actually it has sold over 800k, and this is at a time when, hello, NO ONE BUYS RECORDS ANYMORE. Except for people in France who adore Celine, that is, nearly 20k of which are soon singing along��every lyric, every song��to their beloved diva. For a stadium show it is an extremely personal affair��everyone cries!��and never more so than when Dion's three sons make an appearance, via projection, during her cover of Michael Jackson's Black or White. Rene-Charles, aged 16, raps the King of Pop's spoken word bits, and when he is finished the twins, Nelson and Eddy, make a smiling cameo. Her children are not in the business--"I am not that kind of mother"--but they travel with her on tour and share some of her passions. Rene-Charles loves music and shoes ("the apple did not fall far from the tree") and, like her, habitually over-packs. On this tour he has brought 70 pairs of sneakers. The 6-year-old twins Nelson and Eddy love to dress up, as kids do, and recently asked to have their hair cut and styled like James Brown. Yes, that James Brown. Tres difficile! Fun fact: It was Nelson and Eddy's love of Disney-era Zendaya that made Celine aware of the stylish teen star. She then clocked Z's picture on the red carpet and in magazines. So she googled "who is Zendaya's stylist," as one does, and found Law Roach. Yes, that actually happened. #CelineTakesCouture Photographed by @denisetruscello
