The singer kicked off her Paris residency on Saturday, September 12, at Plenitude Arena in Nanterre, France, wearing Givenchy, Dior, and Boucheron, among others, complementing her vocal prowess with powerhouse looks.

Dion opened her show dressed in a dramatic black gown from Dior, designed by Jonathan Anderson. The structured gown had a strapless bodice and layers of pleated sheer fabric, creating a petal-like shape around the hips.

Later in the show, the iconic singer switched to Givenchy, wearing what the fashion house described as “a custom dusty pink shredded organza embroidered cape with an embroidered cut-out dress” by Sarah Burton.

Both Dior and Givenchy took to Instagram, sharing images of Dion wearing their pieces. Dior even showed the making of the black dress, with images of the material, as well as the dress during construction.

To complement her ensembles, Dion turned to Boucheron, and one standout piece was The Address necklace, which took 1,107 hours to make. Part of the brand's 2026 Histoire de Style High Jewelry collection, The Address, named after Boucheron’s original 26 Place Vendôme address, features a 10.1-carat diamond inspired by the octagonal shape of Place Vendôme, and baguette, round, and emerald cut stones.

Other Boucheron pieces Dion wore included the Fuzzy, the Leopard Cat ring, set with an 18.17-carat cushion-cut green tourmaline, the brand's Tattoo necklace, made with 580 carats of smoky quartz and a 1.74-carat troïdia diamond, and a Serpent Bohème ring.

Boucheron’s creative director, Claire Choisne, in a statement, said she was “deeply honored” and considered it “a dream come true” to see the brand’s pieces on Dion.

She also wrote, “Her voice brings a new dimension to these creations and renders them with grace. It is a beautiful celebration of what drives us every day: the alliance of artistic excellence and boundless creativity.”

Throughout the night, Dion also paid tribute to other Paris couturiers, wearing a molded leather bustier and velvet skirt from Alaïa, a sculptural Schiaparelli ensemble, and a shiny, high-cut black dress from French designer Haider Ackermann for Tom Ford.

It was an emotional night for the 58-year-old singer, who was visibly emotional when she opened the show, wiping away tears and placing her hand on her chest while performing “On Ne Change Pas.”

"I made a promise to be back on stage," Dion told the audience. "So here I am, singing for you and singing for me, singing live! Thank you so very much for your support, your patience, and if I may say so, I am everything I am because you loved me.”

Dion's Paris residency is scheduled to run through October, with another round of shows planned for 2027.
