Ao Dai Charm - Elegance

The ao dai is the traditional dress of Vietnam. Once worn as daily attire prior to 1947, the dress is more often reserved today for festive and formal occasions. But it remains symbolic. And here in the ancient capital of Hue, we have ao dai elegance and the colors, red and yellow, of Vietnam.

About Artist

Matt Sievers

Hey, I'm Matt. Hailing from the Pacific Northwest (USA) but based in Vietnam, I am a travel, documentary and fine art photographer focused on capturing the beauty of Vietnam, SE Asia, the US West and beyond. More than the places you go, it is hopefully the people you meet along the way, calling each one home, that leaves the greatest impression. For me, that has always been the true gift of travel: people, and the authentic interactions and conversations you keep with you from those journeys. It is often on those same travels, and through the same interactions and experiences with others, that I find myself imagining just how easily our lives could be switched—that my life could be theirs, and theirs mine? That idea remains a constant source of fascination to me, and a key driver of my creative interest and work.
