CCTV America interviews designer Vera Wang about running her company

Vera Wang began her career in the fashion industry with a job at Vogue in 1970 and did not leave until 1982 when she had been a longstanding senior editor. From there she became a design director at Ralph Lauren for 2 years before eventually beginning her own line. Since then, she has become a household name with her beautiful wedding dresses and red carpet gowns. Wang also capitalized on the idea of making dresses for various price points in order to make her designs more accessible and increase her number of revenue streams.

Wang frequently discusses the influence of her Chinese heritage on her work, and was able to break out onto the scene as one of the first Asian American designers to become a household name in the United States. She has paved the way for the other Chinese designers who are eager to spread their art across the western hemisphere.

王薇薇（Vera Wang）于1970年开始在时尚界工作，当时在Vogue任职，直到1982年她担任长期编辑才离开。此后，她在拉尔夫·劳伦（Ralph Lauren）担任了两年的首席设计师，然后开始制作自己的衣服。从那时起，她以她美丽的婚纱和着名人物的礼服而成为每个人都知道的名字。王还开始制造可以以不同价格出售的礼服，以便更多的人可以购买她的设计，并且可以赚更多的钱。

王经常谈论华人对她的设计的影响，并能成为每个人都知道这个名字的第一批亚裔美国人设计师之一。 她使西方的其他中国设计师成为可能。
