Vietnam traditional dresses, AO DAI
The Vietnamese traditional dress, 'Ão DÃ i', is one of the most elegant and beautiful dresses for women. Itâs very simple, consisting of a close-fitting blouse, with long panels in the front and back, that is worn over loose white trousers. As a Vietnamese girl who loves to travel abroad, sometimes I bring an Ão DÃ i to travel with me. Whenever I wear it, my Ão DÃ i always attracts friendly looks from both locals and travellers.
Every girl in Vietnam has at least one Ão DÃ i, as it's not expensive to make. Whenever we wear Ão DÃ i, because of the long trousers, high heel sandals or shoes are necessary, it makes the girls look taller. The traditional color of trousers is white, but now many colors are acceptable. The Ão DÃ i is worn on such special occassions like engagement or wedding ceremonies, contract signing ceremonies or any special event. Ão DÃ i is used as a uniform at some offices, airlines or shops etc., and the white Ão DÃ i is also the uniform of Vietnamese school girls. You will see this uniform more often in southern Vietnam, where the weather is warm throughout the year. In northern Vietnam, it's cold in the winter, so this uniform is not always suitable.
