I took a bunch of pictures of a Traditional Vietnamese Wedding when I was in Saigon in 2008 and posted them on my site, http://www.thevietnamtraveler.com

Thank you for this article. It's so nice to know that the beautiful dress of the Vietnamese women are being recognized as such. I am Vietnamese. My mother just recently passed on to me an ao dai from her girlhood days, and I just love it so much. Thanks again for recognizing that we Vietnamese are stylish too! :]

Sharing a poem on Ao Dai

Dear Author,

As a Vietnamese I must be grateful to you and to your article on the Ao Dai of Vietnam.

I would like to share with you a poem on the Ao Dai Vietnam, firstly in Vietnamese then later in English. If Ihave a chance to meet you or to serve you as a tour guide, I will recite the poem in Vietnamese.

Ao dai doi canh tien bay
La hon dan toc, huong say cua doi
Don so hai manh tuyet voi
Than sau, vat truoc thanh loi nuoc non

Ao Dai, the two wings of a fairy
The spirit of the Vietnamese people and the perfume of life.
Very simple with two wonderful flaps
One in the front and the other in the back
And it makes beautiful words of the country

Hope you like the poem.

Nguyen Thi Lan, tour guide
