What Wheel Of Fortune Fans May Not Have Noticed About Vanna White's Dresses

In 2017, Vanna White gave Fox News some juicy details about her longtime career with "Wheel of Fortune." Then 60 years old, she recalled the day she learned she'd landed the job and screamed with excitement on the phone in her apartment. She remembered making a trip to the grocery store, spotting herself on the cover of Newsweek, and realizing she was famous. She explained how — much to her regret and without her consent — her pre-"Wheel of Fortune" lingerie shots made the cover of Playboy.

She also talked about the more than 6,500 outfits she'd worn on the gameshow, hitting all the trends as styles changed throughout the decades. She sported skintight gowns that made her feel as if she were encased in a corset. She donned the giant shoulder pads that were so popular in the 1980s. Some dresses were long, and others were cocktail length. She liked the comfortable, stretchy styles best, and told The Today Show one of her favorites was a floor-length white gown adorned with pink feathers at the hemline. Form-fitting and without any slits, it was difficult to walk in. But the fun style brought back memories of a Barbie dress she had as a child.

"Never the same one twice. Nor do I get to keep them," she told Fox News of the dresses. "They have to go back to the designer, but I certainly enjoy wearing them." Three years later, however, the first part of White's statement was no longer true.
