A woman dressed in Ao Dai was standing on the side of the road in Ho Chi Minh City, making a phone call. I thought that all women wear Ao Dai before I came to Vietnam, but not so much. Therefore, like the woman in this photo, it was quite conspicuous that she wore Ao Dai in the city.

I think it is too hot to wear Ao Dai in this hot Ho Chi Minh City, and I'm sure I'd be much more comfortable wearing a T-shirt and denim to work. Maybe that's why I feel that women wearing ao dai in the city are only service workers. Even though it is hot to wear it, it is the best item for creating a Vietnamese atmosphere.
