Vera Wang interview
Summary
Vera Wang was born in New York in 1949 as a Chinese descent. She has once dreamed to be a figure skater medalist in Olympic Game but failed to be a member of national team. Therefore, she gave up her dream as a figure skater. Then, she got a job as an editor at Vogue and worked for around 17 years. In 1987, she left Vogue and joined Ralph Lauren. At the age of 40, she finally became an independent bridal wear designer.

Reflection
The wedding gowns designed by Vera Wang are amazing! Before this class, I paid little attention to wedding gowns. However, when I have seen her beautiful works Helena, Mabel, Jessica and Katherine, what I will dress in my wedding comes into my mind. It is fun. At the end of the class, Mrs Liang mentioned the gossip of her items and divorces which made me think about that a perfect wedding gown do not mean a perfect marriage.
