NWOT Women's 2pc Vietnamese Modern Short Ao and 28 similar items

This Modern Short Ao Dai or Ao dai Cach Tan is a vibrant, youthful reimagining of the traditional Vietnamese tunic. Designed with a shorter, "mini" length, this piece is perfect for the modern woman who wants to celebrate her heritage with a chic, high-fashion edge. It is an ideal ensemble for Lunar New Year (T?t) celebrations, festivals, or contemporary cultural events. This piece features a redesigned open-front Mandarin collar. The structured high-neck maintains a traditional profile but stays open at the throat, offering a more breathable, modern look that beautifully frames the face. Engineered for a precision "second-skin" fit, this garment includes both a discreet back zipper and a hidden side zipper. This allows for effortless dressing while ensuring the bodice remains perfectly tailored to the waist. The classic long sleeves are replaced with clean, short sleeves, making this version perfect for warmer climates or active festivities. The "Cach Tan" (renovated) style features a shorter hemline that hits at the knee (depending on height) providing a playful and energetic silhouette that pairs perfectly with modern trousers or skirts. The fabric features a stunning all-over print that combines ornate decorative fans?symbolizing authority and grace?with delicate cherry blossoms and peonies. Listing includes the ao dai and matching headpiece, no pants. This is a unique one of a kind custom designed ao dai.
