Vera Wang’s Stylish 76th Birthday Look
Vera Wang celebrated her 76th birthday in Paris on June 27, opting for a “très chic” little black dress with a twist. The renowned designer, known for her bridal and couture creations, chose a daringly short, backless slip dress featuring a sheer panel that revealed her thighs. This choice, she explained, helps accentuate her petite 5-foot-3 frame.
Wang, who frequently embraces bold fashion for herself, completed her look with a bedazzled “76” on her upper arm. She shared photos of the celebration on Instagram, thanking her “Parisian crew” and “lifelong besties” for the special night.
The designer, who launched her label at age 40, has previously spoken about challenging ageism in careers, stating to the BBC that “women were considered transparent at a certain age.” Her birthday attire, and willingness to showcase her age, certainly reflect this philosophy.
