Vera Wang, 73, stuns in new photo after sharing 'magic elixir' that keeps her looking so young

Vera Wang, 73, stuns in new photo after sharing 'magic elixir' that keeps her looking so young

Vera Wang has revealed the 'magic elixir' that keeps her looking so young at 73-years-old.

Fashion icon Vera Wang has almost become the spokesperson for ageing backwards as the 73-year-old stuns in her latest Instagram posts.

Mixed with good genes and healthy eating, there's a lot she does to keep healthy. Although Wang has stressed that she is not actually trying to look younger - she rather just embraces the natural ageing process.

But how does she do it, exactly?

The New York-born businesswoman said she has never thought of 'going way out of [her] way' to 'preserve youth in a fanatical, obsessive way.'

"It's very complimentary and I am very grateful for that. But, I have been asked; what are my 'secrets'," she told BBC 100 Women last year.

"I've been in fashion since I was 19-years-old. Not in front of the camera, behind it.

"I never thought about youth, probably because I work with the most beautiful women in the world on a daily basis.

"And because of that I more envision them as my muses, and maybe it's a way of dealing with ageing that is productive."

With her 74th birthday fast approaching, the bridal wear designer thanked her very own 'magic elixir' for keeping her looking so young.

"So I always said that a vodka cocktail, a lot of sleep... but work - work is the magic elixir," she added.

But fans remain amazed at her Benjamin Button-like physique, as highlighted in a recent pic alongside fellow designer Keith Lissner.

Pictured together at the NEA (National Endowment for the Arts) Awards in the US, Vera writes: “Post NEA Award celebration dinner.

“Thank you Keith Lissner and Paul Vinci for hosting!”

Wang is seen rocking a dark-coloured off-the-shoulder top with her long brunette hair worn loose. Matched with white nail polish and minimal make-up, fans were astonished by her look.

“Vera, you look amazing. I adore your style and designs,” one person wrote, as another added: “You are amazing. You never age, what is your secret?”

“What a lovely picture! You are both gorgeous,” one fan remarked.

Well, quite-clearly, diet is a huge thing when it comes to overall health, which Vera approaches with a good balance.

"I go through phases with what I eat for lunch," she said.

"I like 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 eating a slice of Ray's pizza every day, and I never gained a pound on it. It's not a bad thing if you squeeze out that excess oil. It's so filling.

"I only drink water – I stopped drinking Diet Coke six years ago. That was the hardest thing I ever gave up."
