Fashion designer Vera Wang left fans and enthusiasts astonished with her age-defying appearance at 74. When pressed about her secret to such youthful looks, her response encompassed an unconventional blend of hard work, comfort food, and minimal sun exposure.
In an interview with Page Six, the iconic designer expressed her penchant for fast food, particularly McDonald’s, which she confessed to indulging in for weeks. “I do eat McDonald’s, absolutely. I order it every day, like two weeks on it, and then I’ll change,” Wang revealed.
However, her fast-food cravings don’t stop there. Wang also admitted to a weakness for Dunkin’ Donuts, specifically their cream-filled offerings. She detailed her preferences during her appearance at the DKMS Gala in New York. “I like the cream-filled, sugar-coated donut. It’s like a jelly donut, but with vanilla cream inside. I also enjoy the pink one with sprinkles,” she added enthusiastically.
Social Media Buzz Over Wang’s Age-Defying Looks
The designer, known for her standout creations, recently became the subject of virality following a post that featured her in an orange sports top and denim shorts, showcasing her surprisingly youthful physique. Social media users were quick to voice their amazement. One user exclaimed, “Homegirl just went and unsubscribed from ageing,” referring to her seemingly timeless appearance.
In response to the widespread awe and some misreporting of her age, Wang playfully corrected a tweet, clarifying that she was 71 at the time with a kiss emoji. The conversation escalated when another fan humorously inquired if she had been “drinking unicorn blood” to maintain such a youthful appearance.
The Real Secret: A Balanced Blend
Diving into her lifestyle choices, Wang credited her enduring youthfulness to “work, sleep, a vodka cocktail, and not much sun.”
She emphasized the integral role of her career in keeping her stimulated and young at heart. “Basically, I’ve worked my whole life, so it’s really been about work,” Wang explained. “I believe work keeps you young and stimulated.”
Concluding her insights, she reflected on her life’s journey, highlighting the significance of her work ethic. “I work very long hours; I’ve raised two daughters. I believe keeping busy is the best antidote to good health.” This philosophy, it seems, is the true elixir behind Wang’s enviable vitality.
