Designs such as A-line dresses, strapless dresses, and ruffled dresses... were created in the 1930s but are still sought after by Hollywood and Vietnamese stars today.

1. Ruffled dresses This dress was most popular in the 1930s. The most recognizable feature of fashion during these years was the emphasis on broad shoulders. Designers created dresses with sleeves ranging from banjo-style (tightly fitting like a ballerina's outfit) to butterfly sleeves or thick shoulder pads. |
 |
In modern times, ruffled dresses are combined with more diverse designs. Instead of covering the shoulders like before, Hollywood and Vietnamese beauties prefer more skin-revealing designs such as strapless and bib. |
 |
2. Short-sleeved midi dress The birth of short-sleeved dresses was to match the elegant and neat trend of the 1940s. Women of this era aimed for simplicity in their dresses but still needed accents such as patterns or buttons. Zippers on clothes of this era were also not very popular. Fold-over collars and straight sleeves are the most noticeable features of this style of dress. |
 |
In modern times, in addition to the folded neckline, designers have sought to vary the dress more with round necklines, sweetheart necklines, strapless designs, etc. The straight-sleeved shape has also been renewed with other styles such as puffed sleeves or half-sleeved sleeves. Thanks to the advancement of the fabric manufacturing industry, the materials used for midi dresses are also more diverse. |
 |
3. A-line dress Christian Dior's New Look collection revolutionized world fashion in the late 1940s. By the 1950s, women of that time continued to be drawn into the whirlwind of A-line dresses with a narrow waist to show off a slim waist and feminine round shoulders. |
 |
The A-line silhouette is still one of the most widely used designs in women's clothing because it accentuates the curves of the body. The only changes, if any, are the highlights in details such as belts, belts at the hips, or more diverse materials. |
 |
4. Straight-cut mini dress This outfit was born in the 1960s when the world exploded with many fashion trends at the same time. Along with many other types of clothing, the mini dress is considered one of the designs that broke the conventional, traditional thinking that was previously constrained by fashion. It is considered a liberation for women thanks to its more liberal style while still maintaining elegance. |
 |
To this day, the straight-cut mini dress is still a favorite among fashionistas and celebrities. This type of outfit is often made from solid-colored fabric. |
 |
5. Wrap Dress The invention of designer Diane von Furstenberg was considered a fashion phenomenon in the 1970s. Wrap dresses were described by fashionistas as modern, formal enough to wear to the office, yet sexy enough to wear to parties. Just 5 years after its launch, Diane's company sold 15,000 wrap dresses per week. The brand's reputation helped Diane von Furstenberg's face appear in major newspapers such as Newsweek and The Wall Street Journal. |
 |
Wrap dresses are now quite popular among fashion lovers, especially in the US - the birthplace of this outfit. In addition to the usual elegant straight shape, the design also has many new cuts to create a more diverse style for women. |
 |
6. Strapless Dress This was the most popular outfit for women in the 1980s. During this period, fashion focused on expensive materials and accessories. The glossy look helped women flaunt their wealth and power. |
 |
In modern times, strapless dresses are still considered a seductive "weapon" for women. The tight-fitting style is the most popular choice among young girls when wearing them on the street to attract attention. |
 |
7. Nightgowns The trend of the 1990s has just returned in recent years. Strapless dresses made of all kinds of materials from shiny fabric, lace to silk... appeared everywhere on the streets as well as the red carpet. |
