More quotes by Vera Wang
As the mother of two daughters, I have great respect for women. And I don't ever want to lose that.
Vera Wang
I was stigmatized by being a bridal designer for a long time. I am amazed I have been able to move beyond it. I had really all but given up trying, but I did it because it was my lifelong dream.

Every woman hates her own body. I don't know a woman who doesn't . . . well, I do know a few who love themselves but in the case of most women it's like, ugh. And when I dress a woman, my design intention is to give them an attitude or a grace, no matter whether it's a wedding gown or ready-to-wear.
Vera Wang
The 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 Wang
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.

Vera Wang
Fashion to me has become very disposable I wanted to get back to craft, to clothes that could last.
Vera Wang
A bride should look at everything she possibly can...just so she can experiment and see what makes her really feel beautiful or glamorous or classical or whatever she desires to be on that particular day.
Vera Wang
I work with structure, but I go outside the box and give it my own spin. I adore the challenge of creating truly modern clothes - where a woman's personality and sense of style are realized.
Vera Wang
I was an art history major, but never specifically contemporary. I would say where I really stopped were the abstract expressionists in the New York school.
Vera Wang
Fashion offers no greater challenge than finding what works for night without looking like you are wearing a costume.
Vera Wang
Ready-to-wear is what I've wanted to do since the beginning. ... I'm not a girl who spends my life in a ballgown
Vera Wang
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.
Vera Wang
I was a total fashion insider who became an outsider when I did bridal.
Vera Wang
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
It's hard to balance everything. It's always challenging.
Vera Wang
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
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
I see myself as an arbiter of taste.
