Vietnamese Ao Dai: Folkwear |
Vietnamese Ao Dai This popular, easy-sew ensemble of flowing Tunic over wide-legged pants is considered to be the traditional costume of Vietnam. The Ao Dai is a costume that reflects the influences of Vietnam's various rulers-China, Japan, and France-in its Oriental styling and sumptuous silken fabrics. Perhaps that is why this very femnine fashion is so flattering, elegant, and intriguing. Misses Sizes XS-XL Suggested Fabrics: Lightweight, draping fabrics such as silk, polyester, or cotton gauze for the Tunic and/or pants; also embroidered brocade for the Tunic. Ao Dai pants are typically white; the Tunic can be plain white, a plain or patterned color, or the traditional red and gold for a wedding garment. Normally sold for $19.95. Save 20%.
