Although she called designing ice skating outfits "more pressure than an Oscar dress," Vera Wang has brought home the gold after Evan Lysacek took first place in Men's Figure Skating while wearing a Wang creation.

Wang told WWD:

"It was just so exciting. The Olympics are something you can't really convey on TV. The entire stadium was screaming. They were waving American flags in the stands. It was the Olympic moment I never had, by the way. But one I certainly aspired to. Olympic fever has a whole different energy. At the USA House, I got to hang out with skaters, ski jumpers and all different athletes. It's so positive. It was kind of wonderful just to be there."
