Vera Wang has created a unique aspirational world that alludes to sensuality and youthful sophistication. Exquisite details, intricate draping, and a nonchalant sense of style characterize the Vera Wang aesthetic.

Vera Wang, a native New Yorker, understands women who embrace fashion. By age 23, Vera was the youngest ever Vogue fashion editor and stylist, where she remained for 16 years before moving to Ralph Lauren as a design director. In 1990, Vera Wang opened her first flagship store on Manhattan’s famed Madison Avenue, introducing fashion to the bridal industry with revolutionary designs and refined detailing. Since then, she has expanded her collections to include ready-to-wear, footwear, eyewear, fragrance, flowers, fine china and crystal, silver and gifts, bedding, and fine papers. 2019 marked Vera Wang’s 30th anniversary as a brand, a celebration of three decades spent at the forefront of fashion.

Vera has mastered the art of mixing materials. Her collections showcase not only impeccable tailoring but also classic Deconstructionism. When translated into eyewear, these themes feature Vera's signature use of edgy, boyish, yet romantic elements in the form of shapes that range from feminine to masculine - always keeping them modern, flattering, and fresh. Colors and materials are often mixed by lamination or by layering to create a palette that plays on Vera’s use of grounded neutrals and dark floral touches. Crystal embellishments are key for this collection and are featured in prominent ways. Several styles in both optical and sun feature crystals that are front and center. They are built into the shape of the frame and do not shy away from making a statement.

Vera states, “Eyewear is one of my favorite fashion/beauty accessories! Like a new lipstick or eyeshadow, a special pair of glasses can express your own sense of style, create a new persona and most of all, protect your vision.... Eyewear is fun, creative, easy, personal, practical!”
