VIETNAMESE COSTUME

The most recognisable traditional garment you’re likely to see in Vietnam today is the ao

dai, an item of national dress consisting of a long, tight-fitting, silk tunic worn over loose

trousers The design of the modern ao dai is a variation on more traditional forms of dress, and was perfected in the 1950s Though it was banned in the late 1970s, the ao dai

has since seen a resurgence and many women in Vietnam continue to wear it, often as part

of a uniform for schools, universities and public service roles

The male equivalent of the ao dai is called the ao gam, and is a brocade tunic ordinarily

worn only on special occasions, such as birthdays or festivals You are less likely to see

the ao gam than the ao dai in a day-to-day setting in Vietnam.

More well-known even than the ao dai, the non la is a style of Vietnamese conical hat

that has become symbolic not just of Vietnam but of East Asia in general for manyWesterners The hat, which is usually made from bamboo or straw, appears in Vietnameseart dating from 2,500-3,000 years ago, and is considered part of modern Vietnamesenational costume

From the early twentieth century onwards, most Vietnamese have worn Western-styleclothing in day-to-day life, while members of minority ethnic groups in the north ofcountry still commonly wear the traditional dress of their own particular locality
