Walking alongside heritage - embracing the Vietnamese spirit.

Dạo bước cùng di sản - khoác lên mình tâm hồn Việt

There are places that not only hold history – but every little corner seems to breathe in sync with the rhythm of time. In Hoi An, I felt this more strongly than anywhere else. Every alleyway, shimmering with lanterns, every wall steeped in the past, seemed to whisper ancient stories. Walking through it, I felt like I was lost in a gentle realm of memories.

And when I put on the traditional Vietnamese Ao Dai, for me it's not just about style. Deeper down, it's a silent appreciation, a way for me to honor the beauty of Vietnamese heritage, not just with my eyes, but with my very presence, in every step I take.

That dress is like a moving poem, gentle, graceful, yet deeply rooted in tradition. The Ao Dai was born for moments like these: golden afternoons where past and present intertwine, where culture permeates every piece of fabric and every street.

In a city steeped in history, choosing an outfit that celebrates its cultural heritage is incredibly meaningful.

I've always wanted to share with you how I connect with the local culture, traditions, and heritage of each place I visit. I truly believe that travel isn't just about filling up a map with places – it's about feeling the soul and rhythm of the people and the land.

Ao Dai – a cultural heritage in every thread. The Ao Dai – not just a simple garment, but a cultural heritage woven from every thread. It is Vietnam's most iconic traditional attire, embodying elegance, resilience, and timeless traditional beauty.

"Áo Dài" means "long dress," but "Áo Dài" represents much deeper values: the hidden strength of Vietnamese women, the grace and sophistication of Vietnamese culture, and a design that has been preserved, innovated, and developed over centuries.

The figure-hugging silhouette, combined with the flowing, modest yet subtly powerful and alluring panels, creates a beautiful blend of past values and present-day vibrancy. Nothing is more elegant and captivating than traditional attire cleverly and subtly modernized to harmonize with contemporary fashion.

The silk fabric is so soft it feels like a second skin – so light you can barely feel it. Honestly, I'd be willing to wear this shirt not just for photoshoots, but every day, to work, for walks, to parties. And I definitely would!

With Thong Dong, I was fortunate to collaborate with Hity. The project was truly meaningful to us. I can confidently say that I am very proud to be working with this brand, because I genuinely love every single one of their products. Every design, every stitch, is made with such dedication!
