A woman is never sexier than when she is comfortable in her clothes.
VERA WANGA woman is never sexier than when she is comfortable in her clothes.
VERA WANGIs she going to, or has she done it? Has it happened? What is the story here?
VERA WANGI am not the sort of woman who would wear high heels with a bathing suit. Let’s get that straight right now.
VERA WANGIt’s hard to balance everything. It’s always challenging.
VERA WANGI do speak Mandarin, and I also relate to the hunger that China has for culture and architecture and style.
VERA WANGMy closet is organized by tops, pants, and outerwear, but not a lot of dresses. Gowns are in another room because I don’t often dress formally, even though I design gowns. Like most designers, I have a uniform, and mine is a legging.
VERA WANGI wanted to define the vocabulary of a wedding both visually and intellectually. The book is about more than weddings or wedding dresses. It’s a metaphor for women’s lives, their creativity.
VERA WANGIt takes tremendous will to compete in any athletic endeavor, so it meant going to bed early and getting my homework done in advance. I had to sacrifice things, like a social life, to be a skater at 15. But I loved skating so much that it was worth everything to me.
VERA WANGI’m only waiting for Lindsay Lohan’s fashion collection to come out. Ten years from now, there may be no real designers left.
VERA WANGI want people to see the dress, but focus on the woman.
VERA WANGJust because you’re from a city ten miles outside of St. Paul. It doesn’t mean you don’t read magazines, or the incredible Internet, and what’s going on in the world. I never, ever take a client, or women, for granted.
VERA WANGThe funny thing is that I’m the girl who no one sees at the beach. Ask anyone who’s traveled with me. Normally, I’m in so many layers, I look like Lawrence of Arabia!
VERA WANGIt’s a remarkable exercise to sit and look at your own work over the years.
VERA WANGI brought color to bridal. There was one whole season of blush. If you think about the bareness, the illusion (fabric), the corsets that I did in bridal, they were trends in ready-to-wear, too.
VERA WANGI don’t live through my kids. But I do know what will happen in life, and I just want them well prepared.
VERA WANGI like the gritty parts of fashion, the design, the studio, the pictures.
