Guide to answer

The "ao dai" is the most recognizable traditional Vietnamese costume. It is also a symbol to show the national pride like the conical leaf hat. 

The word "ao dai" was originally applied to the outfit worn at the court of the Nguyen Lords at Hue in the 18th century. For centuries, it is the traditional dress of Vietnamese women. With the special design, it is made from a tight - fitting silk tunic that is slit on the slides and worn over loose pants. Now many fashion designers want to change "ao dai" into modern styles. Some have printed lines of poetry on the "ao dai". Others have add symbols from nature such as: sun, star, flowers,... or cross, stripes to make this costume more beautiful.

Nowadays, "ao dai" is not only worn by women, but also by men. In some special occasions like Tet holiday, wedding or meeting, people wear this traditional costume to express the national pride.
