Sorry!
No performances are currently available.
Delve into the inner workings and enigmatic culture of fashion, from the perspective of the industry’s most talented, successful and legendary personalities today—up close and personal, through these fascinating in-depth interviews and conversations.
The Vera Wang name is synonymous with elegant, understated gowns constructed from the finest fabrics. Her bridal gowns are what Vera Wang is famous for. She uses rich fabrics such as silk lace and duchesses satin, in the tradition of Paris couture and applies them to the simple shapes associated with American sportswear, like the vest dress. In June 2005, Vera Wang was named Womenswear Designer of the Year by the Council of Fashion Designers of America.
