“Non La” and “Ao Dai”, has always been a symbol of Vietnam, closely linked people & their daily lives. • The “Non La” is not only a symbol of Vietnamese girls, but has also become part of the spirit of Vietnam the nation. • The Ao Dai is famously known to ‘cover everything, but hide nothing’, and it perfectly accentuates the long, lithe body possessed by Vietnamese women. When choosing to wear the Ao Dai it pays to have a similarly shaped figure.
