Fun facts about Vera Wang
Vera Wang is known for being a successful fashion designer, but did you know she actually launched her namesake brand at 40 years old, and that she held other jobs in the fashion industry for more than 15 years?
In her early 20s, she started as an editor at Vogue, becoming one of the magazine’s youngest ever fashion editors. Then, after being turned down for the editor-in-chief position of Vogue in 1987, Wang moved to Ralph Lauren where she worked as accessories designer and created 18 lines of accessories for the brand.
