I'm only waiting for Lindsay Lohan's fashion collection to come out. Ten years from now, there may be no real designers left.

Image
I see myself as an arbiter of taste.
Vera Wang
Image
As the mother of two daughters, I have great respect for women. And I don't ever want to lose that.
Vera Wang
Image
I make things of my own that aren't that glam, but I'm not known for that, which has always been a bit of a frustration for me.
Vera Wang
Image
Even the most understated ceremony involves a certain respect for ritual and pageantry. No one plays more of a significant role than the bride's attendants.
Vera Wang
Image
I never thought I'd be successful. It seems in my own mind that in everything I've undertaken I've never quite made the mark. But I've always been able to put disappointments aside. Success isn't about the end result it's about what you learn along the way.

I like the gritty parts of fashion, the design, the studio, the pictures.
Vera Wang
Image
Bridal is always about who you are as a person and as a woman and as a lover and as a mate. People always ask me how a woman can pick just one dress. And the funny thing is they always know.

Image
It's for all the women who embrace my aesthetic, but can't afford a Vera Wang dress. If women can get anything out of it - a little bit of me or a lot of me, that's what's important.

Image
New York for me is about work. If L.A. were to become a West Coast version of that, I'd shoot myself. The climate, the lifestyle - it really fits as the yin to my New York yang.

Image
Is she going to, or has she done it? Has it happened? What is the story here?
Vera Wang
Image
I wanted to breathe new life into the timeless trend of past, present and future. These unique designs celebrate the bride and groom's passage through their new life together.

Image
Fashion offers no greater challenge than finding what works for night without looking like you are wearing a costume.

Image
The great thing about having a pool in L.A. is that I can use it year-round. And since I've always been an athlete, staying fit is very important.
Vera Wang
Image
In the dream world of Matisse and the gritty reality of American frontier, the diversity of women in our society offers the chance for greater exploration and even greater inspiration.
Vera Wang
Image
My normal routine is pretty much putting out fires all day.
Vera Wang
Image
I always see where I didn't do things the right way. I only see the heavy lifting. That's a bit of my wisdom, if you want to call it that.
Vera Wang
Image
Don't be afraid to take time to learn. It's good to work for other people. I worked for others for 20 years. They paid me to learn.

One thing about skating that I don't think people focus on enough is the music factor. The music is a huge component of figure skating. It can dictate not only the choreography but the emotion. If it's not the right music it can ruin a performance.

Image
Let's be realistic, how many people are buying a $2,000 skirt? I love to design things that people can actually buy. I'm staggered by what a boot costs today.

It 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.
