PRAGUE A Vietnamese áo dài (traditional long dress) heritage club has recently made its debut in Prague, aiming to preserve and promote the costume in the the Czech Republic.
At the event, participants were impressed by an áo dài show presented by club members. Notably, the dresses specially designed for the club, which is a combination between Việt Nam's flag and that of the Czech Republic, symbolise a connection with their homeland among those living in the European country. They also demonstrate a desire for closer ties between the two nations.
Phạm Gia Hậu, honorary president of the Vietnamese áo dài heritage club in the Czech Republic, said that the club has sewn and distributed 350 sets of áo dài to its members in just one month. It aims to complete 750 sets of áo dài, not only for its members but also for the Vietnamese community ahead of the 80th anniversary of Việt Nam's National Day and the 75th anniversary of diplomatic ties between Việt Nam and the Czech Republic next year.
On this occasion, the club also held its first Congress for the 2024-2029 tenure and elected an executive board of 33 members, chaired by Nguyễn Tuyết Hạnh. VNA/VNS
