Mekong Ecotour - "AO BA BA"- the Southern Traditional Shirt

Although it has undergone many changes over the years, áo bà ba still holds its own beauty in the modern life. While the áo tứ thân or “4-part dress” represents the edgy beauty looks of the North, the áo dài Huế is favored by modestly charming girls in the Central of the country. The áo bà ba reminds people of Southern women with gentle and good manners in the countryside of the Mekong Delta. 

From the early time of the discovery of the South, the áo bà ba was made simply to be suitable for local people’s hard works but still remained the softness of the costume. The áo bà ba is typically a long-sleeved, press-stud button-down shirt with a scooped neck. It usually comes slightly to the center of the butt and splits at the sides of the waist, forming two flaps, customarily with two pockets. This skin-tight shirt is preferred by the residents of the Mekong Delta because it showcases the incredible curves of Southern women. They can wear it in everyday life, festive occasions and even for working on the fields. Moreover, it is not only comfortable for movement but also easy to wash.

The rustic yet charming look of the shirt can make people fall in love easily.
