Then, when she was about to turn 40 years old, her wedding to computer executive Arthur Becker happened. Wang thought she would never settle down, but after receiving some words of wisdom from her colleagues, she changed her mind.
She struggled to find a wedding dress she liked for her wedding, and her father saw it as a business opportunity, but Wang was uncertain.
She thought it was too late to start a business at her age, but her father kept encouraging her and eventually gave her the startup funds to open her first flagship store at the Carlyle Hotel in New York City in 1990.
Today her namesake brand is a global business spanning fashion, beauty, jewelry, eyewear, fragrance, and homewares. She has licensing deals with Zales, Kohl's, and David's Bridal and employs over 200 people.
As busy as the bridal fashion mogul is, she always made time for her daughters. Wang and her ex-husband, Becker, adopted their two daughters during the time they were together. The duo had "mutually and amicably agreed to separate" after twenty-three years of marriage, back in 2012.
However, they maintained a close relationship and raised their kids together.
