Clothes for All Women! (Vera Wang)




Last Friday, (9-14-07) Vera Wang was on the Oprah show, and Dana was able to tape the show for us to watch together. I was very excited to see what kind of things Vera Wang wanted to put out on the market, and also how she felt about the line.


Vera Wang seemed very enthusiastic, and had a great deal energy about the clothes she created to be selled at Kohl’s. I was very impressed with her quick “Runway" show on Oprah because the audience was able to hear all the details and her input on the different kinds of outfits

At first she just showed the models wearing the clothes. Then she was able to take a couple of people from the audience and dress them up with her new line.

In class, I remember a couple of people saying that when they visited Vera Wang at Kohl’s they felt that the clothing were more on the business side. But on the Oprah show, Vera Wang was able to take several mothers and their daughters and put them into the same outfit. This was very helpful to the audience (and especially for me) because it was able to show the different kinds of ways a younger or older person would be able to wear the clothes and look very stylish, yet comfortable. Vera Wang was also able to add different types of accessories such as boots, big pieces of jewelry, leggings (for under the skirts or dresses), bags, and etc.

Vera Wang also displayed her bedding and sheet with pajamas for all types of woman. The bedding had a very masculine look, while the pajamas were able to bring out feminine features.

Another thing I really enjoyed about the Oprah show was that they showed Vera Wang’s closet. One thing I remember is that Vera Wang loves wearing oversize jackets. She showed some of her very own collection and some of her big pieces of jewelry with her large collection of black leggings/ tights.

The Oprah show really makes me want to go to Kohl's and experience the new line. I'm very excited to see for myself what it looks like in person, and will hopefully have the time to go by there soon!!! The way that Vera Wang was able to put the clothes onto all different types of woman really changed the look of everything! I will blog some more on this topic when I have the chance to visit!
