I love a black wedding dress.
Vera Wang

All those years of skating and dancing have carried over. I can't design anything without thinking of how a woman's body will look and move when she's wearing it.

In the end, it’s not about failure, it’s about how much you love what you do.

Image
We got a lot of letters of people who didn't like them, like my own family who thought they were unnecessary and unpleasant and taking advantage of women in a sad situation - I never saw that. And I think that sometimes, you have to take a risk.

Although in skating you compete with other people, anyone who achieves a certain level of success is first and foremost competing against themselves. And for me the idea that I could always do better, learn more, learn faster, is something that came from skating. But I carried that with me for the rest of my life.

My normal routine is pretty much putting out fires all day.

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.

The key is falling in love with something, anything. If your heart's attached to it, then your mind will be attached to it.

I am not the sort of woman who would wear high heels with a bathing suit. Let's get that straight right now.

Image
When I design a wedding dress with a bustle, it has to be one the bride can dance in. I love the idea that something is practical and still looks great.

As the mother of two daughters, I have great respect for women. And I don't ever want to lose that.

All I did my first year at Vogue was Xerox.

Image
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.
Vera Wang
Image
I 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 Wang
Image
A woman is never sexier than when she is comfortable in her clothes.
Vera Wang
Image
I was the girl who nobody thought would ever get married. I was going to be a fashion nun the rest of my life. There are generations of them, those fashion nuns, living, eating, breathing clothes.
Vera Wang
Image
Design is about point of view, and there should be some sort of woman or lifestyle or attitude in one's head as a designer.
Vera Wang
Image
I started at the very highest level so the upper end is something I know very well. I know it instinctively. But all the years I was designing, it frustrated me that I could reach so few women.

When you love something, every day goes by in 10 minutes.

People get very trapped where they are. When they hear fashion they get intimidated, particularly at the upper end because it's so elitist. If you can bring your own concept or your viewpoint and translate it not down but out, then you're really successful in the truest sense.
