Born and raised in the capital, had the opportunity to study and graduate from the Master of Marketing program in the UK, but Vu Hanh Linh (24 years old) has a hobby of wearing ao dai instead of following emerging trends. youth. The image of a girl in a modern ao dai standing in front of an old dormitory with red flags, mossy old town walls or a newspaper stall has created Linh’s own character. “The ao dai is really beautiful. Of course my wardrobe still has a lot of dresses, T-shirts, shirts but there is always a separate drawer for ao dai. This compartment is getting tighter now,” was the word. share with Hanh Linh Zing. Innovative dresses suitable for young people. From economic students to the owner of a Ao Dai tailor shop For a long time, Hanh Linh has enjoyed traditional Vietnamese clothing, whether it’s traditional or modern ao dai. However, when she knew that ao dai was smooth, she really thought that she could stick with this outfit. Every Lunar New Year and Mid-Autumn Festival, she “buys” a new set. Linh said her friends can “catch” her hobby because she invites them to go see ao dai too much. The feeling of wanting to wear ao dai gradually grew larger inside her while away from the countryside. At that time, what made Linh the most regret was that she could not carry all of her Vietnamese food and her dresser. Not only buying a lot, Hanh Linh also knows how to make ao dai by herself. After returning home, she looked for ao dai for the Mid-Autumn Festival but was not satisfied because she wanted something different. From there, she decided to buy self-made fabrics. Supported by family and friends after making the first product, Hanh Linh decided to open a Ao Dai tailor shop. She did not want to lose the characteristics of the ao dai, so the design was based on the spirit of respect for tradition. Ao dai made by Hanh Linh. The Ha Thanh-born girl expressed: “Ao Dai in some people can be too formal, too old, only for special occasions, it cannot be worn as everyday clothes. Therefore, I want to make ao dai which still keeps the characteristics of Vietnamese costumes but still remains young. An ao dai mixed with tradition and a little modern helps young people feel confident and comfortable to wear every day. That is what I aim for “. Being a student in economics, Hanh Linh admits her experience is built on what she sees and experiences. However, it is her love of drawing, coloring, shopping and viewing clothes and fabrics that has helped her to have a stable sense of color. This creates conditions for Linh in choosing and coordinating colors. During the work, she also had to learn more things in the garment sector, experimenting with materials, and carefully looking for Vietnamese clothes. “The outfit will look better if you are confident” Creating ideas, drawing what you like, choosing fabrics, cutting and sewing are the steps for Hanh Linh to make ao dai. She said she had to start over many times. Therefore, completion time depends on creativity and working mood. “I have a lot of ao dai. The traditional ao dai is discreet, the ao dai is a little more liberal to the youthful innovative ao dai. I have several styles in every style, from plain silk, linen, linen to fabric flowers, brocade … all colors, all styles. When I opened the Ao Dai shop myself, the number of Ao Dai increased rapidly, making me unable to count anymore, “Linh said. The 24-year-old girl also commented that ao dai is the most comfortable outfit to wear if you know the right materials to choose. Currently, Hanh Linh cannot count the number of ao dai she has. Hanh Linh used to think that she was too thin to wear well, and her skin was dark. But now, she is much more confident. “Any clothes will look better if you have the makeup that suits you as well as the outfit. The most important thing is to be confident,” she said. Ao dai is not only for people with a slim body. With overalls, girls who are slightly plump can try a more neutral tone or combine with a thin silk jacket to avoid exposing the biceps. As a girl with a slightly different hobby from her peers, Hanh Linh said that she simply wanted to share her love for ao dai with everyone. In Korea, China or Japan, it is not uncommon for traditional clothing to be worn on the street, so she wants to bring the ao dai to “weave” gradually on a young people’s normal day. “There are many young people who are very good at and try to preserve Vietnamese culture. The Vietnamese dress segment is no exception. Even the proposal for male students to wear five-body shirts as uniforms is supported by young people. Good thing, “Hanh Linh expressed.
