You would find college goers and working women or homemakers too, wearing blouses and skirts, with wedges and heels. Grooming at par is an immaculate affair, makeup is minimal and the porcelain skin is flaunted with nude shades for the lips and the cheeks.

Although Vietnamese folks are a very religious sect of people, and in some corners of the country people do take offense when women especially flaunt a little too much of their skin. However, you would still find women in denims and a shirt, hot pants and crop tops, jeans and a tee – as long as they are decently dressed, no one raises an eyebrow. Vietnam clothing also depends on the climes around!
