Vera Wang debuted a major haircut and color change for her 77th birthday.
She paired her dramatic transformation with a slinky white halter gown.
The designer rang in the big day with a dinner with friends.
Another trip around the sun calls for a dramatic hair transformation—at least, for Vera Wang it does. The designer rang in her 77th birthday (which occurred on June 27) with a belated fancy dinner party and a dramatic beauty switch-up.
Wang posted a series of photos from her bash to her Instagram yesterday. While there was much for fans to take in, her drastic new hairdo took the (birthday) cake. Wang chopped off her long brunette locks for a shoulder-length lob, which she then dyed a honey blonde, allowing her dark roots to still shine through.
Wang welcomed the change, allowing her locks to take centerstage by opting for more pared-back glam, complete with luminous skin, subtle eyeshadow, a barely-there lip, and a French manicure.

When it came to her outfit, Wang embodied understated elegance in a slinky white halter dress that featured gorgeous figure-hugging ruching throughout, a low back, and a floor-grazing skirt. She forewent jewelry, accessorizing with just a pair of oversize black shades.

"JUST DOWN THE HALL !!! B’DAY TIME !!!🎂🥳🎉❤️," she captioned a carousel of photos that saw her posing in the hallways of Plaza Athénée in Paris, France.
Another post, this time captioned "PARTY TIME ..!!! 🥳🎂," saw Wang seated at a table among friends as a birthday cake with lit candles was brought over. The classic white cake featured ornate piping, "77" candles, and a card that read, "Happy Birthday Vera."

Wang posted one last photo from the night: a snap of a cappuccino decorated with her likeness and "Happy Birthday." She wrote in the caption, "When the PLAZA ATHÉNÉE serves you your coffee at a business meeting on your birthday! ……,, THANK YOU for such a truly lovely surprise! 😌🙏👏👏👏👏👏🎂☕️👏🌹🇫🇷♥️."
Wang is making birthday hair transformations something of a tradition. Last year, she commemorated her 76th birthday (once again in Paris) by displaying an old money blonde dye job. She embraced a golden-blonde hue with dark roots and long layers that grazed her ribs.
