VIETNAM Ao Dai: From Traditional to Trendy

The Ao Dai is the traditional dress for a Vietnamese woman. Made of Chinese court clothing, it was developed in the 1930s. But it was considered a lavish wardrobe and not suitable for everyday, working clothes and so went out of style in 1954 in the Northern part of the country, and in 1975 in South Vietnam. But recently, not only has it made a comeback, it has become like a fashion statement, especially among schoolgirls and office employees in the Southern side of Vietnam. Moreover, it has transformed into a trendy formal outfit.
