Traditional and Culture: Vietnamese

Every country in the world has some traditions, culture or innovations to be proud of. For example, China has famous procelain, Japan has many modern electric machines,..and so does Vietnam. "Ao dai" is one of very profound impressions about Vietnam. We are proud of "Ao Dai" because of its history, beauty, the significance of the attire upon Vietnamese women and all things that it shows for pure beauty. First, the description about "Ao Dai" is the reason for its expanding throughout the country in a very short time compared to hte country's history. About the origin, "Ao Dai" originated in Vietnam, meaning "long dress" is a traditional attire worn by Vietnamese women since the early 1900s and is still worn today. The very interesting thing that: like "Ao Dai", Vietnam is a long country on the Far East coast of Asia. This thing makes it become more respectable for Vietnamese people with a full love for the country. It appears to flatter every figure. Its body hugging top flows over wide trousers that brush the floor. Especially, comfort has not been forgotten at the expense of fashion and beauty. Splits in the gown allows the wearer freedom of movement and despite covering the whole body to make it comfortable and easy to mo


The occasions in which "Ao Dai" is worn signifies the importance of the event. Not long after Vietnam declared it indepence from Chinese rule, the French invaded and took over. More than that, the aspects of its history, origins, and the significance of the attire upon Vietnamese women will always make it unique and special. We, Vietnamese people are all proud of "Ao Dai", our national attire. The designs of "Ao Dai" for a matrimonial ceremony often display mythical figures such as the dragon, phoenix, and Chinese prints. It can be considered as a "uniform" to unite the rich and poor within the schools. Because of its beauty and comfort, it becomes the national costume for ladies rapidly throughout the country. For school, all women are required to wear white "Ao Dai" because white color stands for purity and elegance. The temple is condered "simple" and does not need "flashy designs" to contaminated its purity and innocence. Vietnamese found it very beautiful and inexpensive; therefore, they used it to develop attires for women. China controlled Vietnam for about 1,000 years; consequently, the development of "Ao Dai" style is similar to Chinese dress. First and most influential culture was Chinese. Vietnamese women wear this attire to casual occasions, school, worship, and for marriage with many colors and styles. Actually, colors are no longer as rigidly controlled and access to new fabrics has created some dazzling results.
