And while "old world" is a weasely word, usually the oldest world people associate with Venice is the the world inhabited by Donatello, Michaelangelo, and the other ninja turtles, which is to say Renaissance--not medieval--Venice.
So, by "modern medieval," Vera Wang means some amalgam of 20th-century Spanish design, 19th-century fabric, and 15th- or 16th-century Italian romance. Or, in other words, "kinda old-timey." Awesome.
