Vera Wang has stunned social media with her pictures from her 73rd birthday.
Wang appears to have found the vodka cocktail-filled fountain of youth and avoided ageing in the new pictures.
The fashion designer turned 73 on Monday (27 June), but waited until now to share the pictures on Instagram.
She was snapped holding a Vera Wang-branded silver bottle of prosecco in room adorned with pink flowers and lights.

Wang has previously discussed ageing and criticised ageism in an interview with the BBC earlier this year.
During lockdown a picture of Wang in a crop top went viral and people were left shocked by the fact she was 72 when the picture was taken.
She clarified that she ‘never thought about going way out of [her] way to preserve youth’.

“It’s nice that people thought that about me. It’s very complimentary and I’m very grateful for that,” she said.
She also credited her youthful look to getting a good night’s sleep and fishing the day with a vodka cocktail to help her maintain her work-life balance.
We can definitely get behind this!
Wang also shocked the world when she walked the red carpet at the Vogue premiere of Baz Luhrmann’s Elvis Presley biopic Elvis.
She wore a floor length gown made from a silver metallic material. Wang shared a picture of her outfit on Instagram with the caption: “On my way in my long silk silver lame tank top dress trying to look cool for Baz Luhrmann’s NYC Vogue premiere of his latest masterpiece, Elvis. Cocktails await…….and don't wait to see it!”
