Hi. I'll be in Southern Vietnam (HCMC, Can Tho, Mekong Delta) in a few months on a visit.
I'm wondering if anyone here can recommend a tailor who can make ao dai for a reasonable price (decent quality, but not too expensive) or just give advice. Would it be real silk? Could it be done decently in a few days? I might get a few. What's a fair price for one made with decent silk?
The thing is, I'm a man. But I do want to get a regular women's ao dai (for me to wear). Would this cause any issues?
Also, can one get a ao yem made (traditional Vietnamese women's undergarment)? How much would that cost? How would I go about getting it?
Also, any other suggestions for traditional Vietnamese women's clothing I could get made? (not something like empress's clothing, just pretty clothes, preferably silk). What about modern, Vietnamese style clothing(not Western style; something sophisticated and Vietnamese inspired, preferably silk).
This wouldn't cause a stir since I'm a guy, right?
TIA
