Most of the women featured on this page were attired with the traditional Vietnamese Ao Dai. There are other traditional outfits for the women, but the ao dai is the definitive attire. It is beautiful in its simplicity and femininity. Ao dais can be worn with nearly most occasions ranging from school uniform (all whites to signify virginity and innocence) to colors and patterns for regular casual wear or formal wears for balls, galas, ceremonies, etc. I personally could conjure up no lovelier image than a Vietnamese woman in her ao dai and long, lustrious raven-tressed hair. That is not to say I don't find other women of the world attractive. Boy, do I?!! But I just couldn't get over the soft butterfly look of the Vietnamese woman.
My thanks to all the ladies that graces my page and to the photographers; whomever they may be.
