Vera Wang originally trained as a figure skater, and when she didn’t make the Olympic squad, she (thankfully!) turned to fashion. She was first made famous by her wedding gowns and has dressed many celebrities on their big day, such as Mariah Carey, Jennifer Lopez, Jessica Simpson and Victoria Beckham. Today, Vera Wang has much more than wedding gowns to offer, such as her partnership with Wedgwood for home wares, and her dazzling array of sumptuous fragrances.
