Björk’s swan dress and Celine Dion’s infamous white tux make the list.
the singer-slash-actress wore a sequined pantsuit by Arnold Scaasi, fitted with flared legs and tuxedo cuffs. The ensemble, which happened to be almost entirely see-through, caused quite a stir, and the then 26-year-old later said she hadn’t considered the outfit’s unique vulnerability on the Oscars stage. “I had no idea that when the lights hit that outfit, it would become transparent,” she said in a later interview.
. “A lot of women, I think they felt upstaged or pissed off that I wasn’t taking things as seriously as I should.”On the fashion front, the 1999 Oscars were arguably one of its most interesting years on record. But an undebatable highlight was Celine Dion’s backwards tuxedo, designed by John Galliano and paired with a dapper slanted-brim hat. It was quite a departure for the time period, when the red carpet was still very much dominated by traditional gowns.
. “I was the only one with pants in a backward suit from Galliano, and if I would do this today, it would work. It was avant-garde at the time.”It was the dress that shook the globe: Icelandic singer Björk spurred one of the biggest pop-culture moments of all time when she wore a swan dress by Marjan Pejoski to the 2001 Oscars. The frock’s full skirt and long swan neck, wrapped around Bjork’s own like a scarf, have since been preserved in museums around the globe.
