Vera Wang – though she once had ice skating aspirations, she has become a formidable force in the fashion world that continues to be a leader in haute couture. While she has made her mark in various avenues of style, her impact is undeniably felt the strongest in the realm of weddings. She continues to redefine what we consider to be “bridal fashion” as evident by her decision to send black bridal gowns, long gloves and leather down the runway. Though her dresses may be lusted after by Carrie Bradshaw and movie stars, more affordable options are made available through retailers like David’s Bridal; check out some of our favorite gowns from her latest collection, White by Vera Wang.
