Vietnam is a rich culture country is Southeast
Asia, famous with its tradition cloth Aodai.
Perhaps no area is quite as committed to the
conservation of their costumes than Hue, its
Ancient Capital. Not many other places in Vietnam
female students have to wearAodai to school like
in Hue.

In this city, the Ao Dai is proudly preserved by
everyone, from youths to elders, by wearing it in
special occasions and big ceremony. Along with
Truong Tien Bridge, Perfume River, Thien Mu
Pagoda, Aodai Hue has been the greatest symbol of
Hue. Along time ago in Hue, Aodai had been worn
daily, from imperial concubines to shopkeepers in
Dong Ba market. If you had booked Hue, Da Nang or
Hoi An hotels, spend at least one day to order
this symbolic dress.

Some says Aodai is a variations of Ao Tu Than
(four-panel traditional dress). However, these
two types of cloth have different origins. Ao Tu
Than was from the Northern Vietnam, was worn
outside Yem (brassiere) with Vay (long dress). Ao
Tu Than was usually made from soft fabric, Ao Tu
Than was for women only. While Aodai, in the
past, was loosely fitted and was for both men and
women. It was not a symbol of aesthetics, but a
symbol of elegance. Nowadays, men also wear the
same Aodai, which did not go through much change.
Men now wear Aodai at engagements, weddings or
even funerals.

The process of making Ao Dai If you have chance
to visit Hue, Da Nang and Hoi An, its very easy
to find a fabric store and order a tailor-made Ao
Dai, which takes only a few hours to finish.
However, Ao Dai with a lot of details and
artworks may take up to a week. Measure and
cut After choosing your favorite fabric (which
is usually silk), you will be measured and then
the tailor starts to cut into pieces. It requires
a lot of experiences and skills in cutting silk,
a flowing and stretchy fabric, with neat and
straight lines.
6
Sew and finishing touch After the cutting
process, the tailor works on different parts such
as neck, back and front, sleeves, pants.When the
pieces are assembled, additional artwork
(optional) will be added. Now the garment
industry in Central Vietnam is extremely
developing. While booking Hoi An hotels, take
your chance to get beautiful tailored Ao Dai. You
can customize your dress and its artworks,
however, we Vietnamese always prefer plaincolor,
which is a symbol for both elegance and
simplicity.
