Folkwear #139 Vietnamese Ao Dai pattern is an easy-sew ensemble of flowing tunic over wide-legged pants and is considered to be the traditional costume of Vietnam and has come to be firmly associated with the small Southeast Asian country. The Ao Dai is a costume that reflects the influences of Vietnam's various rulers - China, Japan, and France - in its Oriental styling and sumptuous silken fabrics. Perhaps that is who this very feminine fashion is so flattering, elegant and intriguing. The Tunic features front and back waist shaping darts, manderin collar, front neckline/armhole opening, tapered long sleeves with elbow darts, and long free-hanging front and back panels. The pants have an easy full-legged fit, center back zipper, and faced waistline.
