Instead of working on modern clothing styles, Vietnamese designer Nguyen Duc Loc has decided to take a step back in time and focus on his country’s ancient outfit designs. The 28-year-old has founded a company dedicated to reproducing attire from Vietnam’s Nguyen dynasty (1802-1945), a time when the ruling class wore extravagant designs embellished with symbols of power such as dragons. Loc hopes his company can help spur a return of the traditional clothing to modern-day life.

I would love to see traditional clothing come back into fashion. It would be so cool walking down the street and seeing people wearing traditional clothing. Maybe there is a way to adapt them for the modern market?
There is! I'm actually working on a modernized prototype for Việt phục at the moment! Most of my prototypes are based on the clothing of previous dynastic styles like the Later Lê, but if you're interested to see Nguyễn dynasty styles, there are some shops in Vietnamese that offer modernized designs like V'Style Việt Cổ Phục Cách Tân.
I'm from China. China is also rising traditional culture fever. I think it is great for young people to know more and love more about their traditional culture. Well done👍 ! Vietnamese friends.
Isn't fever a bad thing?
@@karaqakkzl sorry, my english isn't very well, maybe we can call it cultural hot or cultural craze.
As a young vietnamese living in germany I would love to own one of those dresses and keep our culture alive! ❤
Wait a minute.. i live there tooo
So...have you? XD
seriously it is more beautiful than aodai
Part of the reason some countries don't wear traditional or ancient outfit, particularly those in tropical countries, is high humidity. Another reason is practicality. They are unquestionably gorgeous but it's not practical to use at work especially if your work involves manual labor.
Also, these outfits don't come cheap. These are mostly geared toward the elite and high fashion that's why it might be challenging to revive it but definitely not impossible.
They look so cool. Young people should start dressing in the ancient regal way for weddings or other events.
I always like to see people dressing in their ancient clothes cuz it makes it more unique
There are 54 ethnic groups in Vn recognized by the Vietnamese government. Each ethnicity has their own language, traditions, and subculture.
Very diverse!
Kinh people themselves are sorta a mixture of Chinese and Khmer (generally speaking), but if we go into more details, they're actually more diverse than that.
@@jackjackyphantom8854 I disagree from a cultural perspective. Vietnam has mostly taken influence from China. There are some Khmer influences in the South(things like cơm tấm and the scarf on the áo bà ba), but overall Chinese influence is much stronger.
@@Crunchycrunkybro Genetically speaking, what I said seems to be the case.
@@jackjackyphantom8854 Oh! then I can agree with that.
Nguyen you are a genius. What a wonderful concept. Bringing the past to present. Brilliant!!
Creative and innovative performance.Does help to think outside the box.Does help to practice and improve our drawing skills.Thank you very much.Greetings from Moscow Russia.🇷🇺
This is so nice I never ever got to see Traditional clothing in a long time..
Love Vienam from China. 💗Our clothes so similar in many ways due to history.
Our clothes is vividly influenced from China's Hanfu. We don't deny that. 1000yrs of colonization isn't a short time. But like Japan, we didn't use it 100% but added twists and changes to make it more distinguished, more Annam' s represented images. Like Japan did with Kimono. Some aggressive Vietnamese refusing China's origins. But we're not shameless like K who claiming backwards.
@@doankimtuananh9317 👍👍👍 More communications like this need to be made.
We are cousin after all , we should unite
Similar but not always similar
@@trunpham1075 understood sister
There are critics about the styles were copied from here and there. Such emphasis is irrelevant. Silk was invented long long time ago and during that time only nobility can afford to own such an item. Most likely such elegant garments were used as gifts among kingdoms and or for marriage, etc... over time the styles evolved to fit the weather of the region primarily.
These outfits look so classy, kinds royale.... Love them
Well, these are usually worn by the upper class in the ancient time, lower classes may have just 1 for special occasions. So yeah it does feels like royalty wearing them
@@ngolung8924 The ancient clothing of Vietnam was influenced by Hanfu that's why it look kinda similar to Kimono and Hanbok, whereas Aodai look more like Cheongsam, but some saids that it's derived from Cham culture.
Those are definitely like the outfits from royal people. Ordinary people could never have that back in the days
Cool, I see my country traditional clothes on here.
Keep asian race and culture safe!
What do u mean?
Nguyen~ So beautiful. Old is new again! It's the great Renaissance.
Look so much like Chinese traditional outfit. It nice to see how Chinese culture in the past influences other cultures.i.e Japan , Korea, Vietnam. And watch them evolve it too something else different.
Korean: “we influence the Chinese not the other way around”
That Viet costume is called nhật bình, it’s influenced from the Ming Dynasty costume
Vietnamese people of Bach Viet origin are not like the Han people, although Vietnam has an Oriental culture similar to other Asian countries, but still has its own distinct
@@Hoaquason93 Baiyue is a collective term to describe the indigenous peoples who live in Southern part of China in the ancient time, they were consisted of various groups of peoples. And Baiyue were probably primitive before adopting cultures from other civilizations. Although Baiyue were thought to be great seafarers.
@@jackjackyphantom8854 Yes but Viet people are not Chinese
Luv ur content
They are so pretty
Thanks you 😍
Love Vietnam
Very nice, just don't be like the Koreans who's now claiming Hanfu copied Hanbok. Every country has the right to respect their own cultures WITHOUT disrespecting others, especially when it's based on a lie.
@Chí Thiện Nguyễn 2000 years🥴, seem like Vietnam are turning into a second Korea🤣
@Chí Thiện Nguyễn hahah colonized Vietnam?🤣🤣 do you know the founder of nanyue/nam Viet is zhaotuo/trieu da which was a military governor from qin dynasty??? So when two Chinese fighting each other and one of them loses to the other, how is that colonized???
when did this come up anywhere in the video..... accusing things that arent there. if you ever tried to look at việt phục theres always a bunch of chinese nationals claiming việt phục is a copy of hanfu so its the other way around 😐❓
Come on Chinese, are u guys kidding me? First of all, Chinese forced their culture on Vietnamese! Originally, Vietnamese were more similar to Khmer and Thai!
Wow. Actually, I think you are more disrespectful to other cultures😒
China feels cringe toward it's own culture for not having it's own modern traditional dress, Cheongsam is Manchu ethnic so they tried to revived Hanfu for Han people.
Vietnam have Aozai but it's feels lack so they also revive their traditional dress also
Not gonna be cheap
That's cool stuff

Finally someone with integrity. I wish I had traditional clothes of my people.
Wish we could go back more ancient, like in Lý, Trần or Lê dynasty, not just Nguyễn.
Do u mean during the pre-Chinese influence?
@@jackjackyphantom8854 Such a disgrace of China when bringing army throughout several dynasties & still lost Vietnam while yours was much larger & more crowded than us:)))
218 B.C.E: Qin Shi Huang brought army to invade our nation but was lost by Vietnamese army leaders.
938: Southern Han lost to our king, Ngo Quyen, in Bach Dang river while invading us.
981: Again, Song Taizong failed to invade us in Bach Dang river.
We were also one of the few countires that defeated Mongolian Nguyen army & even defeated 3 times
One of our kings, Quang Trung also defeated more than 200,000 Qing army of Qianlong in 1788-1789
Finally, after years, we are still an independent country with specific traits in culture. While some(not all ok) frog-in-the-well Chinese are still harping on the same thing that Vietnamese clothes this & that COPIED their Hanfu while resisting to admit the first F0 patient of Corona was from your country.
@@meo_mim9124 Why are u telling me all these? And why are u assuming that I'm Chinese? 😂
@@jackjackyphantom8854 “parts” means the people that keep saying ancient Vietnamese clothes were influenced by Hanfu, while the dynasties she was mentioning about were Ly & Tran, which had no longer had any characteristics of Hanfu on it. The only similarity was the pattern on the costumes, & we could see it through most of the ancient Asian costumes, not only Chinese one.
I assume the people who said ancient clothes of Ly, Tran & Nguyen dynasties were influenced by Hanfu or pre-Chinese influence were not quite correct & it could mislead & cause conflicts for the ones who are searching info about Vietnamese ancient clothes.
@@meo_mim9124 I mean pre-Chinese influenced Vietnamese were Khmer. Modern Vietnamese (Kinh) are mixed of different ethnicities.
Finally that’s how Vietnam traditional clothing should be done, not a blatant rip off of Chinese Hanfu like others
Can even find chinese characters on tje clothing.
Ehhhh, Vietnam was part of China you know 😂 they are different country now, but the culture is still 95% Chinese with only a little change of they own touch
@@user-nx2qs1lb8l Vietnam was different country at first, then become part of China for a thoudsand year. Both have similar culture, it not who steal from who
@@user-nx2qs1lb8l I pity you wumao
@@nguyenhoangphucluan8059 ehhh, ok? ahahhaha, who care what do you think. here is you 5 cent :D
Vietnam need to bring back the characters and 19th century outfit
Cool
The designs are gorgeous!!
Of course his last name is nguyen lol
More beautiful than modern ao dai
Baiyue culture of Vietnam,
we asian(sino spear) need to stick together for our race and people. Especially for our asian children in the future.
I didn't know you got the Karen look...
@@charlietube7165 bro that's a model
The Sinosphere has never really been friendly to each other lol
@@ROCKSTAR3291 only in last hundred years
Ancient? These stuffs were worn by Vietnamese noble women around 17-18th century to 1945, just recently. Not ancient!
I’d say “classical” instead of “ancient”
💕💕💕
Nguyen Dynasty custome
And the Philippines complements this. :)
I wish Philippines can also do the same. Bring back our traditional clothings. Especially during the Pre-colonial era.
@@Maharlika97 This is the result of Chinese colonization, not the real Vietnamese clothing. Look at the Muong people, that's the real Vietnamese!
@@jackjackyphantom8854 muong is ethnic minorities in vietnam. Kinh (viet) is the main ethnic group in vietnam (80% population). Vietnam country name means the Vietnamese in the south. Muong people never represented vietnam
@@balala411 Muong are basically pre-sinicized Vietnamese.
@@jackjackyphantom8854, Can I please have a source for this? just for curiosity?
Vary 牛！
First
Cross culture
Vietnam Ancient Costumes Are Similar To China. We Can See People In China With Ancient Costumes Along The Streets. Vietnam Chinese Cultures Are From China.
Can you stop
Vietnamese people of Bach Viet origin are not like the Han people, although Vietnam has an Oriental culture similar to other Asian countries, but still has its own distinct
Can you not, vietnam doesn't deny having chinese influence but they have their own culture too
This is why every body hate Chinese 🙄
And this whole world’s cultures are from China too. Aren’t they?
All asian clothes look similiar.
Cause they were inspired by chinese han culture
But not the same!
Typical white man's perspective. Lol so ignorant of you.
All European clothes also look similar
And all african clothes look similar. Same climate, duh 😑
I wish Vietnam didnt have this sinosphere cultural influnece. Vietnam should have less sinophere influence and Vietnam need more Indian, Turkic, Mongol, Persian, Middle eastern and Polynesian cultural influence. Vietnamese hsould be wearing mongol or middle eastern clothing.
What ? I'm Vietnamese and proud of my Sinosphere culture influences.No need western, Turkic ,indosphere influence ...
Now just STOP eating Dogs and Cats. And quit counterfeiting stuff
Did you mistaken Vietnam and China ?
If you did visit our country you might learn something beside the propaganda you learn in school
@@ngolung8924 I wouldn't want to visit. It's not propaganda quite true actually
@Kevin Troy i dont deny that we ear cats and dogs. But since when we copy stuffs ?
@@huyanhnguyen7535 hahaha
They look ridiculous in those clothes
?
What's your problem?
yes it is their tradition and shouldn’t insult them like that
Better than you !!
Better than you for sure
