Description
These two Vietnamese women are wearing the traditional Ao Dai, a very light and beautiful garment.
This picture was taken in July 1967 on DaNang AB as a slide. A print was made in 1969 ($1.05 per print) and this print was scanned in 2004.

Great shot. It's incredible that it's more than 40 years old.
Nice shot Sig. I didn't know they wore high heels back then. Nice piece of history. Aloha
Two very different toe styles to the shoes.
Great shot Sig. The garments do look so elegant and the women wear them with pride. :)
Excellent shot, fantastic details and beautiful light
Excellent. I love their expressions and their cloths !
Lovely shot. The shoes seem so out of place with the traditional dresses.. marks a time of transition I guess.
excellent capture Sig, $1.05 for a print?.. yipes!!
to sapUS59. Yes! It definitely kept the number of prints down I had made. i earned about $3.56/hr. then.
Superb capture of these beautiful young ladies. Their dresses are stunning. Thank goodness for digital cameras, I'd be broke!
...ein Stück Zeitgeschichte. Ein sehr interessante Aufnahme....
These were the garments worn by middle and upper class women. The ao dai not only looked elegant, they looked very sexy. Peasants wore black (see my 2nd upload ever posted Sept 2007)
To see what the peasants wore I refer you to my upload titled 'A Rainy Day in DaNang). My 3rd upload, thanks, Sig...
Beautiful shot!!!! Agree!! a lovely garment...
beautiful capture sig of these young ladies .they must be getting close to 60 now :o) mick
Nice bit of history here. Makes me wonder where they are today
Wonderful and so graceful Do you still have the Slides Sig may be worth redoing some of these..
very nice shot.
Superb and so interesting!
I always was amazed at how they keep the white so white and stainless, and how they could spend so much time walking around in those pointy toed, high heeled shoes. Great shot.
Its great that you still have these shots and have had them scanned Sig. I am reading every word and learning things all the time here! These women look so petite and elegant !
your photos are very beautiful!
A fascinating series, and priceless that you still have them. Those eyeglasses sure look like the 60's. Another great shot.
Love their expressions and the traditional dresses..looks elegant and sexy too! the 60's were the best years. Excellent :)
