The fashion designer has not only been in Milan for this year's games, but she's been sharing snaps reflecting on when her designs were worn on the ice, a job she's been done for 20 years, according to People.
“It’s not for the faint of heart,” Wang told the magazine ahead of 2018's Pyeongchang Games where she designed the costume for skater Nathan Chen. “If one strap were to break, or if the beading on the sleeve gets caught when they turn, their whole Olympics is over. That is how serious it is. It’s absolutely nightmarish!”
As for understanding what the athletes endure, she also shared that she's aware of their athleticism thanks to her own experience.
“I understand the physics,” she added. “I think people are fooled by the nature of the costumes and the ease and the musicality and the choreography. It is an extreme sport.”
Wang has also been joined by her daughter, Jojo, for the 2026 games. The designer has shared posts of the two watching skating events as well as shopping while in Milan.
Per the Olympic schedule, Women's figure skating will be happening on Tuesday and Wednesday. ? SIGN UP for Parade’s Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news & celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox ?
