Nguyen My Hanh, the Deputy Chief of the Office of the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Culture and Sports, held a press briefing on Thursday afternoon to announce that the Department would collaborate with the municipal Department of Information and Communications to handle the show entitled ‘New Tradition’ produced by designer Tuong Danh.

Nguyen My Hanh, a representative of the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Culture and Sports, mentioned the controversial fashion show at a press conference on May 25, 2023. An image of the event, captured by Hoai Phuong of Tuoi Tre, was featured at the conference. The show garnered a lot of attention from the public and media outlets, and its impact is still being discussed today.

During the show, which was held in Thu Duc City, part of Ho Chi Minh City, over two weeks ago, models donned ao yem, a traditional Vietnamese bodice, and daring ao dai, a traditional Vietnamese costume.

The show organizer will face sanctions for violating administrative procedures and disseminating offensive images online, according to Hanh.

The angry backlash against the fashion show after images and clips featuring models wearing provocative clothes dispersed on social media prompted authorities in the city to launch a probe into the show and adopt suitable sanctions against it.

Located at an altitude of 1,200m above sea level, Lung Van in Tan Lac District looks like a fairyland amidst white clouds so it has another name, the Cloud Valley.

The call from Nam Giang

Image
In his memory, old Zuong Noonh from Pa Rong village, Ta Bhing commune, Nam Giang district 10 years ago was poor. However, everything has changed since the Japanese Foundation for International Development/Relief (FIDR) came to help the Co Tu restore their traditional brocade weaving. It also provided support to the local people by developing community-based tourism under a project funded by the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA). About 10 years ago, only eight women in Ta Bhing Commune knew how to weave brocade. Then, a traditional brocade weaving cooperative was set up with 40 members. The products are diverse with many beautiful pieces that are of cultural value to foreign tourists. Young Co Tu girls welcome visitors to Pa Xua village.
