Vietjet celebrated Vietnamese Women’s Day on October 20 with an unconventional and first-ever catwalk with impressive Ao Dai dresses at Tan Son Nhat International Airport in Ho Chi Minh City and onboard a special flight. Aside from Vietjet’s high-quality services, passengers could also enjoy the unique experiences brought by Vietjet.

The alluring Ao Dai catwalk performance was accompanied by the melody of “Huong Vietnam” by Phuong Nguyen and Thierry David. Vietnamese supermodel, Vo Hoang Yen, ruled the catwalk alongside Vietjet’s team of models to beautifully showcase a collection of vivid colored Ao Dai dresses hand-drawn by the renowned Vietnamese designer, Thuan Viet. This is also the first time an Ao Dai catwalk performance has taken place at an airport in the world. Not only did the passengers enjoyed the catwalk at Tan Son Nhat International Airport lounge, but passengers on board of VJ126 flight from Ho Chi Minh City to Hanoi also had the exclusive privilege of admiring the catwalk performance in the skies.

The designer, Thuan Viet, said, “I hand-drew the whole collection of these 10 Ao Dai dresses which draw on popular Vietnamese myths, such as Tam Cam (Cinderella), Son Tinh-Thuy Tinh (Mountain Spirit and Sea Spirit), Au Co Lac Long Quan (The Fairy and the Dragon), etc., and used 3D printing techniques to create the unique designs.”

Vietjet especially would like to spread the messages of “love” to women on Vietnamese Women’s Day. Several female passengers onboard of Vietjet’s flights on October 20 received meaningful gifts and took part in a lucky draw for valuable prizes on board.
