Wang is known for her iconic wedding designs, but she’s also had a hand in developing athletic fashions. A former figure skater herself, she has created outfits for Olympic skaters including Nancy Kerrigan and Evan Lysacek. Her sports-inspired design efforts also extend to the NFL. The Eagles Cheerleaders first introduced Vera Wang uniforms in 2003, becoming the first squad to be outfitted by an internationally famed designer.
“It was an honor to create the uniform design that has now become synonymous with the Philadelphia Eagles Cheerleaders. I always embrace the opportunity to work on extensions of my original creations and enjoyed designing new signature pieces for the beautiful and talented cheerleaders to wear this year,” Wang said.
