When Vietnamese haute couture fashion goes hand in hand with humanistic values.

During the "Journey to Radiance" Gala Dinner, part of the Miss Businesswoman Beauty of Vietnam 2025 pageant (September 3-9) held in Khanh Hoa , designer Tommy Nguyen presented two unique "haute couture" evening gowns.

In particular, after the dramatic and lively auction at the end of the show, contestant Nguyen Thi Van (contestant number 168) and contestant Chu Thi Hong Hoa (contestant number 686) became the owners of two special fashion pieces worth hundreds of millions of VND. The two beauties, along with the designer, contributed to continuing the meaningful charitable journey of the competition, "Creating Livelihoods - Giving Love".

“Business can bring success, but sharing is the way to leave lasting values in the hearts of others , ” Hong Hoa expressed. Nguyen Thi Van shared: “Owning this haute couture outfit, I not only brought home a fashion masterpiece, but also held in my heart the designer's dedication and the noble spirit of the charity program.”

The beauties commented that the outfits were impressive not only for their colors and silhouettes, but also for the beaded and floral hoods, the jackets shaped like large roses, the shimmering fringed sleeves, and the voluminous skirts, creating a strong visual effect.

In the "first face" (opening) outfit, meticulously crafted silver sequins create a soft, flowing effect, each step resembling a vibrant galaxy. The asymmetrical design and long, flowing skirt evoke a sense of freedom, while the stylized shoulders and the head covering, adorned with beads and exquisite flowers, portray the image of a proud "goddess of light."

Conversely, the "vedette" (closing act) created an explosive effect with its red hue – a color symbolizing power and passion. The form-fitting corset accentuated the body's curves, while crystal and gemstone motifs flowed in a wave-like pattern. The highlight was the shoulder design, shaped like soaring flower petals, combined with an elaborate jacket adorned with large roses, transforming the wearer into a symbol of vitality and radiant brilliance.

Sharing his thoughts on the two designs, Tommy Nguyen emotionally expressed: “Haute couture is where I pour my heart and soul and top-notch techniques. With the first face design, I wanted to bring a fresh beginning , and with the vedette design, I wanted to ignite the flame of passion. I am happy that both designs not only shone on the stage, but also found owners willing to accompany me on this journey of sharing love. ”
