'Wheel of Fortune' Cohost Vanna White's Style Through the Years

Since 1982, Vanna White has been appearing on television screens across the U.S. as the cohost of the popular syndicated game show “Wheel of Fortune.” She has been responsible for revealing the letters on the “Wheel of Fortune” board, and has done so in style.

Throughout her tenure on the show White has worn everything from metallic jumpsuits to sequin gowns. It is estimated that White has worn more than 7,000 outfits throughout her decades on the program.

In 2020, for a week straight, she wore archival Bob Mackie gowns to promote a “Wheel of Fortune” collection that was a collaboration with the designer.

White, along with her cohost Pat Sajak, became the longest-serving television hosts of any program in TV history. With more than 25 million weekly viewers, the game show reaches more people than any other TV program.
