Vectorworks can import and export .dwg directly.

 

If it fits your workflow VW can also import IFC, Revit, Cinema 4D, PDFs, Shapefiles, .3ds, .obj, .stl, Rhino, Parasolid, and Sketchup, plus a few more

 

and export PDF, Shapefile, .3ds, 3D PDF, Cinema 4D, .obj, .stl, Rhino, Parasolid, plus a few more.

 

When round tripping dwg to vwx it will be useful to experiment with the import/export dwg settings to make sure you are getting back the dwg formatting you like.

Ask the designer to export their file from VW into a  dwg version compatible with your AutoCad version. VW can export to most dwg versions. It’s useful if they supply a pdf version of the file so you have a visual reference in case there are are any obvious issues with the exported file.
