TMG – In the serene surrounds of Hoi An’s Ancient Town, among its cobblestoned streets and centuries-old shophouses, there is a sight that never fails to make visitors stop and take notice. That is the image of a traditional ao dai (Vietnamese tunic dress) fluttering in the wind, an age-old symbol of Vietnamese culture.
At Victoria Hoi An Beach Resort & Spa on Cua Dai Beach, 5km from the center of the Ancient Town, that scene is replicated countless times during the day because the elegant ao dai doubles as the staff uniform, speaking to a deep connection between people, nature and culture.
According to history, the ao dai is a staple of Vietnamese dress, a symbol of the grace and resilience of the Vietnamese people. Through the years, the ao dai has largely maintained its original design and beauty, worn by the Vietnamese on special occasions as well as in everyday life, a tradition that’s been passed on through the generations as a silent symbol of Vietnamese identity and culture.
At Victoria Hoi An, the ao dai links the past and the present, giving visitors a peek into the Indochina of yesteryear with its stylish fashion and classic elegance. Small tweaks in the design have modernized the garment while still retaining the traditional aesthetics of this flowy garment, a visual invitation for guests to learn more about the history and culture of Hoi An and of Vietnam.
When visitors first step foot at Victoria Hoi An, they’re greeted not only with warm smiles and a refreshing welcome drink exclusive to Victoria Hoi An, but with ao dai-clad staff for a truly memorable first impression.
For Victoria Hoi An, the ao dai is much more than a uniform; it’s a way for the resort to honor the beauty and cultural values of Vietnam, endearing guests to both the dress and the people of this fascinating country.
When staff of Victoria Hoi An don their ao dai, it’s like they’re embracing the warm, rustic soul of Vietnam. As they walk the grounds of Victoria Hoi An, with the colorful silk flaps of the tunic dress fluttering in the wind, it adds a certain authenticity and uniqueness to the stay experience for guests, an unforgettable tableau and a testament to the connection between the people and culture of Vietnam.
