Vietnamese supermodels and the reasons for retiring from the catwalk.

Vu Thu Phuong, Hoang Yen, Ngoc Quyen, Ngoc Thach, Ngoc Bich... have all taken different paths after their time in the modeling profession.

Vu Thu Phuong

In 2011, at the peak of her career, Vu Thu Phuong announced her retirement from modeling, surprising and disappointing both her fans and colleagues. She also temporarily suspended her artistic activities to focus on her family and business ventures. After retiring, Vu Thu Phuong dedicated herself to fashion design and worked diligently to build her own brand.

In November 2011, the former supermodel married businessman Tran Thanh Hai, a Vietnamese man of Cambodian descent, in Phu Quoc. Two years later, she gave birth to her first daughter, and currently, Vu Thu Phuong is seven months pregnant, with her family eagerly awaiting the arrival of their second child.

At the peak of her modeling career, Vu Thu Phuong decided to retire and move into the field of fashion design.

Winning the top title at the "Vietnam Supermodel 2010" competition opened up many opportunities for Ngoc Thach's modeling career. That same year, she reached the top 10 of the "Miss Model Of The World" competition, winning several additional awards such as "Most Popular Contestant" and "Best Evening Gown." Following these domestic and international awards, Ngoc Thach became more well-known, skillfully leveraging her attractive face and professional performance style to create a strong appeal.

In 2012, "Night of Long Legs 5" was the last show Ngoc Thach participated in, marking her departure from the runway and Vietnamese showbiz to focus on her family. In 2013, she married businessman Do Binh Duong, separating herself from the Vietnamese entertainment industry. In 2014, she and her husband appeared at several events to introduce their beauty care business projects. In 2015, Ngoc Thach gave birth to a healthy baby boy, and the arrival of Ricky made the former supermodel's family atmosphere even warmer and more joyful.

After a period of dedication to the catwalk, supermodel Ngoc Thach bid farewell to Vietnamese showbiz to get married and take care of her family.

Ngoc Quyen

In late 2013, model Ngoc Quyen surprised everyone by announcing her marriage to an overseas Vietnamese man. She moved to the US to settle down, deciding to leave the catwalk and the hustle and bustle of the Vietnamese entertainment industry. While not possessing many titles from prestigious supermodel competitions, Ngoc Quyen is highly regarded in the Vietnamese modeling world for her alluring style and distinctive performance.

When deciding to retire, Ngoc Quyen felt regretful because she had spent a long time in the modeling profession – a job that allowed her to live out her passions and gain valuable experiences. But according to Ngoc Quyen, 10 years in the profession had brought her certain successes, and 2013 was the right time to choose a new direction for herself.

After more than a year of marriage to Vietnamese-American doctor Richard Le, Ngoc Quyen is pregnant with her first child. Ngoc Quyen shared that she and her husband are very happy because they both hoped to have a son. Currently, both mother and child are in good health, and Ngoc Quyen is expected to give birth in early 2016.

Ngoc Quyen's retirement at a time when her acting and modeling career was flourishing left many fans and colleagues feeling regretful.

Despite winning the gold medal at the "Vietnam Supermodel 2010" competition, Ngoc Bich did not achieve the same resounding success as Hoang Yen, Ngoc Thach, and Thu Hang on the Vietnamese catwalk. However, Ngoc Bich became a captivating figure on the red carpet thanks to her pretty appearance, fashionable and stylish designer outfits.

In 2014, after participating in several shows on the "Fashion and Life" program, Ngoc Bich decided to retire from the catwalk. She moved to England to get married and is currently residing in London. Ngoc Bich keeps her family life private, only revealing that she is extremely lucky and happy to have a husband who truly loves her and is financially stable.

Ngoc Bich has left her modeling career to focus on her personal happiness.

Vo Hoang Yen

In October 2015, the 2008 "Vietnam Supermodel" gold medalist held an official press conference announcing her retirement from the catwalk. According to Hoang Yen, her 10 years in the fashion industry had brought her significant success and left a mark on the Vietnamese modeling scene. At the press conference, Hoang Yen shared that Chung Thanh Phong's "Ange ou Demon" show was her last as a model. The supermodel considered it a beautiful ending, closing a glorious chapter in her career. Hoang Yen will be taking on a new role as a DJ in her next endeavor.

Hoang Yen believes it's time to retire from the catwalk and give younger models a chance to develop their careers. However, interestingly, after announcing her retirement, Hoang Yen continued to appear on the catwalk as a model. This led to accusations that she was using gimmicks to promote herself.

Hoang Yen caused a stir when she announced her retirement from DJing to pursue a career as a DJ, but later made a comeback on the fashion runway.
