On the afternoon of June 1, at a regular press conference, the Department of Culture and Sports of Ho Chi Minh City provided additional information on the handling of the organizer of the New Traditional fashion show by designer Tuong Danh.
The Ho Chi Minh City Department of Culture and Sports said it has verified that the violating entity is Objoff Company Limited, headquartered at 73 Street No. 4, Thao Dien Ward, Thu Duc City.
Thu Duc City has drawn up a record of administrative violations, and the Department of Culture and Sports is also in the process of consulting the City People's Committee to issue a decision on penalties according to regulations.
The Department of Culture and Sports of Ho Chi Minh City has coordinated with management agencies to handle the case. Accordingly, Thu Duc City has drawn up a record of administrative violations, and the Department of Culture and Sports is also in the process of consulting the City People's Committee to issue a decision on penalties according to regulations.
Previously, a representative of the Department of Culture and Sports of Ho Chi Minh City confirmed to VTC News reporter: The fashion show named New Tradition taking place on May 6, 2023 did not follow the administrative procedures as prescribed at the Department of Culture and Sports.
As VTC News reported earlier, designer Tuong Danh's New Tradition fashion show stirred up mixed public opinion with images of models wearing conical hats and stylized yem shirts, revealing their backs and buttocks.
Another image that caused outrage was a male model wearing a yellow off-the-shoulder dress with a high neckline. While performing, he also held a golden bell in his hand. Along with that, many other designs inspired by the ao dai and ao yem also had bold cut-out details...
This collection has faced fierce opposition from experts and the public. Most opinions say that the collection brings offensive images, not in line with traditional values: "The designer wants to bring traditional themes into the design but does not care about the values and images of Vietnamese people for generations. The image of traditional Vietnamese women is extremely beautiful and has its own charm. No matter how much innovation is needed, the core of tradition must be preserved."
Other viewers criticized more harshly : "As for the ao yem, even though it is underwear, it is still a symbol of women, a symbol of softness, grace, and elegance, not ridiculous enough to be paired with thong panties and high heels like a stripper."
