Vera Wang is celebrated for how gracefully she has aged, but she doesn't focus too much on that aspect. She holds the belief that as everyone grows older, it's only natural to prioritize concerns related to physical abilities rather than appearances.

The fashionista confessed, “ I think what happens sometimes as you age… I’m more frightened about physical disabilities… noy all this. I’m not totally preoccupied with how I look. I love my work, and I’m very passionate about my work, my friends, and my daughters.”

When it comes to her ageless appearance, Vera Wang shares something interesting. She maintains her youthful appearance by sipping revitalizing drinks, getting a good nine hours of sleep each night, and protecting her skin from excessive sun exposure. Staying active and engaged in meaningful work also keeps her mind, body, and spirit youthful. She also attributes her radiant skin to the use of baby oil during bath time.

“I think work keeps you young and stimulated. I work very long hours, I’ve raised two daughters. I think keeping busy is the best antidote for good health,” the designer shared. “You know I’ve been asked, ‘What are my secrets?’ And I’ve got to be really honest, one of them is sleep.”

Sport is the key to her fitness, keeping her in top form and contributing to her overall stunning look. A quick scroll through Vera Wang's Instagram posts reveals her passion for a variety of sports, from tennis to cycling and golf. It's no wonder that her commitment to physical activity plays a significant role in maintaining her enviable appearance.
