100 Women in Conversation: Vera Wang

A prominent designer who has been at the forefront of fashion since the 1970s, Vera Wang has expanded the business under her name from bridalwear to fragrance, publishing, home design and more.

In an exclusive BBC 100 Women interview, the designer and fashion icon speaks about ageism and her experience of becoming a viral sensation at the age of 72. New York-born Wang also discusses how to tackle the growing conflict between fashion and sustainability, and what it feels like to be living as a Chinese-American woman in a hostile environment of increasing anti-Asian hate.
