If there's one person we're certain has the key to eternal youth, it's Vera Wang.
That's right, the prestigious US fashion designer has once again hit headlines across the globe for her seemingly age-defying looks.
As such, fans have been left with countless questions, including what the mother-of-two's diet must consist of to look that gorgeous - despite having been on the New York fashion scene for decades - as well as how old Vera actually is.

Taking to social media this week, the wedding-dress boss shared a series of snaps from a recent, rather plush-looking poolside photoshoot, where she sparked a wave of praise over her timeless aesthetic.
So much so, that some of her followers admitted they'd mistaken the couture veteran for a '20-year-old model'.
"Miss wang serving looks as usual," one penned, before another added: "Iconic and amazing embodied in one soul".
As we say, though, this isn't the first time that the critically-acclaimed stylist has faced questioning for how she manages to pull off such a youthful appearance.
Whilst some of her devout followers were under the impression that she must have gone under the knife to achieve such a fresh-faced aesthetic, others hoped they'd be able to get their hands on whatever 'magical elixir' she must have been using on her skin.
Speaking to press last year, however, the much-loved businesswoman claimed she has never thought of 'going way out of [her] way' to 'preserve youth'.
"It's very complimentary and I am very grateful for that," she told BBC 100 Women last year. "But, I have been asked; what are my 'secrets'.
"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."
Following the revelation, Vera's followers wondered whether a secret diet might be her key to long-lasting beauty.
And apparently, they were pretty close to the money - but the delicately-framed star's food favourites aren't exactly what you might expect.
In fact, the fashionista admitted she's partial to a couple of things that few of us are strangers to: some fast food and a cocktail.
Speaking to Page Six Style a while back, Vera - who, it might surprise you to learn, is actually 71 years old - revealed: "I do eat McDonald’s, absolutely."
She continued: "I order it every day, like two weeks on it, and then I’ll change."
But it's seemingly not just Maccies, as Wang said she also gets a hankering for Dunkin’ Donuts.
"I like the cream-filled, sugar-coated donut," she shared. "It’s like a jelly donut, but it’s cream inside, vanilla cream. I like the pink with sprinkles, too."
