Whether it's reporting on conflicts abroad and political divisions at home, or covering the latest style trends and scientific developments, New York Times video journalists provide a revealing and unforgettable view of the world. It's all the news that's fit to watch. On YouTube.
I love her interviews. She's so likable, chill and spontaneous. She looks so young and fun. And to think she's contemporary with Anna Wintour.

can't believe she's 70!
Noe Berengena:
The best part of this video focuses on the personal space that Vera maintains as her refuge. Most people do not appreciate how strongly our surroundings influence our psyches and emotions. Wang is exceptionally tuned into this idea and, to her credit, she insists on a space that is carefully outfitted with a prescribed color and materials palette. That attention to design is a clear designation of intent.
Carnage Kabuto:
You know she's a great designer by her level of craziness
Miss Maryy:
Google: Vera Wang and she looks 70 without photo-shop.
JiMaine SPark:
I LOVE VERA WANG SO MUCH! She’s a genius and her dresses are out of this world!
vsboy25:
Its ok vera wang your rich stop stressing.
rob ord:
Beautiful series nytimes
Aike Zh:
Please do interview with Carolina Herrera!! And just more interviews with famous designers!!!
hagglemyivan:
Sooo, from a perspective of someone who used to work for her- she does not design. She does not sketch. This is all a photo op. Her office is empty because she hides in it, refusing to design. What designer has an office without references, sketches, designs, etc? This relaxed, go with the flow, vibe that she is giving off is a lie. She is rude, flat out mean, and abuses her workers. She admits to hating bridal, but does it for the money. As for her ready to wear- her team knocks off other designers, and copies current trends, making the collection irrelevant when it walks the runway, and is the same reason she refuses to wear her own clothes. The only reason she still has brand is because she is rich and because she is a celebrity at this point. I can go on, and can seriously write a devil-wears-Prada-esque expose about this brand. (Coming from a person who used to admire her work until I learned the truth from the inside).
sam myy:
She’s a genius

Wang The Artist
cocorita5:
I don't like the obsession with the human clothes hanger.
90% of women in the world are not that shape.
This is sad
H R:
My heaven / my disco / my mental hospital 😂 love it
Cecilie Noble:
Vera, looks magnificently beautiful! She takes care of herself and has me envious with jealousy, that she can look this good at 70!
MAGNIFICENT Designer but she will also be an Olympic Ice Skater; as well! 👍🏆👍🏅
Cool One:
Great series, In The Studio. Please consider profiling a couple of NYC authors. Not picky, you select. Thanks!
Bota Yussupova-Kroondyk:

elsa1942:
You sure can tell she's older but DANG SHE DOES NOT LOOK OR SOUND LIKE A 70 YEAR OLD AT ALL!
Ana Siqueira:
Psychic? Smh...
John Doe:
Never got her appeal. Neat lady. But talented? She's a neurotic mess, God love her.
Alionkiss:
Icon🙌
Jed Cabuco:
She's *"pretty"*
C Lau:

Rahim Sarauril:
confirm ni pakai susuk
Julian Chatterton:
She's horrible to work with, not to mention she isn't a pleasant person.
where jobs grow on Jobies:
Wow 65
katiemc66:
She sounds different from how she used to. I think she might have dentures or some kind of mouth/tooth plate or something? Something is off about the way she's talking. She almost lisp'y, which she never did before.
Diane R:
Success is delusional.
grxmos:
Queen
DREISKINS101:
i'll hit it
Janina Gaudin:
I love the in the studio series- it's really interesting how a lot of the designers like their own space to be minimal, almost like a blank canvas, so they have the mentality to be creative..
Harjan:
The age
Mario Torrez Quant:
This is a very demanding job! Bless you Vera!
Shoaib K:
Honestly Alexander gives so much more charisma
Harjan:
She is adult to young life
Loka -:
ياوك ياذا العجوز
Spooky Carrie:
does she have a lisp
TheVegasaurus:
Yes Vera, insanity....real insanity.
Baldoxxx4000:
what happened to her face? did she had accident before?
FULEYSCHDI musix:
Está mujer descubrió la piedra filosofal (This woman discovered the philosopher's stone)
Henning Andersen:
the usual NERVING , DISTURBING MUZAK.
Aurora:
I don't get the comments she's hella Talented and BEAUTIFUL human being inside out
Shakira Christy:
I'm just curious. Do designers know how to create their designs hand by hand themselves? Or is the process kind of the same as building houses etc. where they are somewhat stand like engineers? Hehehe
teenie beenie:
aint she doin bridal stuff for jc penny or sum tacky company?
Manu Ginobilis Bald Spot:
All that money, but can't fix that lisp...
Harjan:
She is look like a cher, gloria gaynor, donna summer and diana ross
Hizkia Siappudan:
i wonder what she eats...
Erin S.:
Vera Wang produced a stunning new bridal line but the new commercial on YouTube which aired before watching an art tutorial with my 11 year old niece is atrocious. I hate to say this as I would never assumed the ad to be Vera's but she and her label should be ashamed of themselves for 1. allowing these models in such an unhealthy state not only represent her but to by then force the add until it can be skipped to be viewed by children and young people. Your first clue should have been when the ribs can be seen from behind and handles for hip bones second that maybe just maybe the model selection needed to be revised. I can not and will not support any designer or label who encourage this look and then let our kids, teenagers and young adults see what the best bridal designer in the world thinks you should look like on your wedding day. Can't you sell a healthy look for the young girls to dream on their wedding day?
theflowerhead:
This is so crude for this type of video, but is it just me or do models never have boobs? Nothing will ever be made to fit me. I don't know, maybe they should eat. Anything to do with this I just get distracted by how strange models look to me.
znikacz:
What a horrible job...
Lydia Dugan:
I think she must have lingual braces. They are the kind that are placed behind the teeth and yes, they do cause a bit of a lisp. I have them now and I am very self conscious about them. I do not think Vera needs to be reminded of them.
I love her bridal wear. Vera came from an extremely privileged background, but she wanted to make it on her own. She is a great woman.
America Nation:
I'm not really impressed by her designs!
totofrenchdragon:
the quality of Vera Wang is very made in China poor quality I was stun!!!!!!!!!
Damian Rhea:
Is she related to Alexander Wang? They look alike. And so cute like a pair of China dolls...
Taninger Bestian:
很丑，也不喜欢她
Baybee:
id LOVE to see people getting featured like that who actually ARE important..like the doctors who save our lives...jesus, at the end of the day, its just clothes...
