@@thienloi01 we actually don’t know that, it’s a theory but it’s widely debated. Turbans were also worn in the Lý-Trần dynasty. In any case, even if the Nguyễn style turbans were introduced by the Cham, they became a completely different type of head wrap from the original style that we usually associate with turbans.
@@khangaroo8166 Thanks for the correction. Do you mean a hypothesis? A theory is a well established explanation based on a careful examination of facts.
@@thienloi01 Yeah I suppose that its more of a hypothesis. I'm pretty sure that narrative was popularized in Ngàn năm áo mũ. The book is known for being pretty credible, but it does state that the Nguyễn turbans MAY have originated from the Cham ones. It's a very iffy sort of statement that doesn't really give a definite answer. It's a good read though, I recommend it if you're interested in Việt Phục
Vietnam is getting richer and richer in terms of its economy, hopefully this means that the younger generation will have an opportunity to focus on culture and traditional fashion, I would love to see ao ly and ao phuc evolve into something we viets can call our own
controversial opinion: i don't think sexualizing ao dai should necessarily be off the table. wearing it without the pants looks ugly and is just the wrong way to wear it, however, i think it would be interesting to see how designers would make a more revealing/sexy/etc interpretation. clothing evolves and changes all the time and that's a beautiful part of fashion. BUT this should be in the hands of vietnamese designers, not people outside our community who likely view our culture through an orientalist lens all that aside i love your videos and always love what you have to share
I agree with your point. Áo dài is already considered "sexy" because of its silhouette. I personally don't have problems with evolving the garment, as long as it's not losing the pants or designed in a disrespectful way. And of course, it should be done by Vietnamese people, not others.
My mother and grandmother wore ao dais almost all the time and I grew up all my life being in awe of their beauty, there is no need to sexualize traditional clothes, they are supposed to be timeless and classic not modern. You can wear the qipao if you want pants less, but there's a reason why even the Chinese are steering away from it... It is not appropriate for everyone
Totally agree with the part of wearing the proper accessories, and if one styling the clothes with accessories from other culture do not claim it as your own even if they look similar. But to play it safe just wear the accessories from your own culture, as we're now living in a world where cancel culture is a thing and everyone could be triggered by anything.
thank you so much for this video 😭 im actually born and raised in ho chi minh city but due to certain circumstances at home, i spent a lot of my childhood at my friends’ houses which were two french based household, a hispanic household and a black family from new orleans. so i never really got in touch with my vietnamese heritage but this video really helped me a lot to make me feel better about my nationality
Just to let you know, the graduation hat is called a mortarboard because the square, flat top looks like the square tray bricklayers when applying mortar. Also, as for what I would wear to modern events, I would pick áo ngũ thân tay chẽn. Simple, elegant, comfortable, versatile, also quite compatible with modern fashion. Definitely works on casual occasions as well as more formal ones, like to see the opera or go fine dining.
i found out that i am part vietnamese because my grandparents in my fathers side were vietnamese living in the philippines and i never met my dad even as a baby but i knew about this through my relatives so im impressed and curious about vietnamese culture

@@vivietphuc overall positive but there was this one instance of racism mainly from the fact I’m from the south of America, but it was overall an amazing experience
Modern ao dai is inspired by indian dress, i think Vietnamese take inspiration from india in term of style, i have also notice that changing trend in term of modern designs are also reflecting in ao dai design
No is not inspired by Indian dress. It was modernized from Vietnamese áo ngũ thân in the Nguyễn Dynasty, which it somewhat influenced by the Manchu or China Ming Dynasty
@@Allinone-p8j What exact same copy? Áo dài is more tight and have higher collar, while Indian kurta have round collar and a looser, bigger shape. Nowadays we innovated the áo dài since high collar is too hot and loosen the shape so that girls with chubby body can still wear it completely Would you mind showing me the copy?
The turban is so quintessential Vietnamese, and so beautiful. No other country has the same hat
Not really, the khăn vấn was influenced by Cham turban.

Mas pelo que eu já vi dos posts dela no Instagram, o Ao Dai, por exemplo, é feito para ser sexy com elegância.

What do you think about wearing Vietnamese tradional clothing when you have dyed/bleached/colored hair and short hair when you are seen as a woman?
Keke I’m so guilty of this. I literally had a photoshoot with traditional clothing and my hair was bleached haha. I feel like that’s fine.
No idea how i ended up here but i enjoyed knowledge

Trang phục truyền thống không thể thay đổi. Áo dài chỉ nên mặc quần.
I have Chinese, Indian and Vietnamese dna I'm trying to figure out a way to represent all of them at the same time 😭
