Pháo Trang Vintage Vietnamese Ao Dai – Burgundy Velvet & Red Embroidered Dress

This exquisite vintage Vietnamese Ao Dai features a rich burgundy velvet body paired with red sheer embroidered sleeves and upper yoke, adorned with intricate floral sequin and beadwork. The craftsmanship reflects traditional tailoring from Huế, Vietnam, long regarded as the cultural capital of the Ao Dai.The interior label reads “Pháo Trang” (also read as Đoan Trang) and includes an old 5‑digit telephone number (Tel: 53561) and a location reference near the Liên Hoa pagoda area. These details confirm this is a true vintage, custom‑tailored piece, likely mid‑century, preserved beautifully. Designed with the classic Ao Dai structure, this gown includes a high collar, long sleeves, and side slits beginning at the waist, creating the signature flowing silhouette. Velvet panels add weight and elegance, while sheer embroidered sections provide contrast and movement.
