Vera Wang credits two surprising things for ageless look as she turns 76

Vera Wang is celebrating another milestone birthday, and following her impressive appearance at this year's Met Gala, she has unveiled two beauty secrets that she attributes to her youthful radiance.

There seems to be no one else who has virtually halted the aging process like the fashion icon herself.

Vera Wang is celebrated for numerous achievements: founding the renowned fashion empire Vera Wang, turning heads at every event, and consistently defying age with her timeless appearance.

Dressed in white and perfectly aligned with the Met Gala theme, Superfine: Tailoring Black Style, Wang exuded a timeless aura, paying homage to Black fashion and dandyism.

The fashion mogul’s red-carpet presence left admirers in awe, with many commenting on her bold choice of a choppy, bobbed hair style.

One curious social media user questioned: "Who advised Vera Wang to step out with that wig??"

Who indeed could advise Vera Wang on how to be Vera Wang?

Nonetheless, she dazzled in her attire at the event. However, it was her revelation of celebrating her 76th birthday that truly stunned people, as she appeared much younger than her years.

Her seeming agelessness has been a topic of conversation for years, but now she’s sharing her glow secrets, proving she’s a true girl's girl.

She unveiled the keys to her flawless skin and sharp fashion sense, attributing them to beauty hacks and nutritional tips.

Surprisingly, she confessed to indulging in fast food and a cocktail occasionally, yet she maintains her youthful appearance through hard work and dedication.

In an interview with Page Six Style, Wang revealed: "I do eat McDonald’s, absolutely."

She continued: "I have it regularly, like two weeks on it, and then I switch."

The entrepreneur attributes her youthful appearance to her 'magic elixir.'

"I've always said that a vodka cocktail, plenty of sleep, and work - work is the magic elixir," she added.

Discussing her dietary habits, where she champions balance and moderation, Wang once told Harper's Bazaar: "I go through phases with what I eat for lunch.

"I enjoy sashimi with brown rice and vegetables, Chinese steamed broccoli with chicken and rice, or the artichoke salad or fish from Sant Ambroeus.

"At one point, I was having a slice of Ray's pizza daily, and it never affected my weight. It's not bad if you blot the excess oil. It's so satisfying.

"I only drink water - I gave up Diet Coke six years ago. It was the toughest thing I ever did."

The designer recently spoke to Vogue about her business and her decision to sell it after 35 years to management group WHP Global.

Wang will remain as the founder and chief creative officer of the label, expressing excitement as the company brings 'energy' and 'ambition, passion, and dedication.'

Explaining her decision to sell, she noted it would enable her to expand her brand, saying: “With this deal, it’s a combination where 1 plus 1 equals 5, rather than -2. That’s important to emphasize because as a brand, I haven’t been able to engage in many of the strategies I’ve envisioned. With this sale, I will be a shareholder, allowing me to participate in their company and help guide the direction of my brand — a unique opportunity.”

Exciting developments are on the horizon for this Queen!
