Wheelchair model, tiny couple confidently perform fashion show

Recently, Vietnam Disability Fashion Show 2025 took place at the Vietnam Fine Arts Museum. This is a fashion show that is not bound by body standards, held for the first time in Vietnam, attracting attention with the appearance of disabled models.

The opening collection of the show, titled “Flowers Blooming in the Sky,” is a spiritual gift dedicated to disabled women - strong flowers that rise from hardship.

Inspired by the image of lotus overcoming mud, sunflower reaching for the light, each design is a slice of life, where beauty does not lie in perfect lines, but in the courage to live true to oneself.

Under the hands of young designers from domestic fashion academies, “Flowers blooming in the sky” is not simply an outfit, but a symphony of colors, where each woman is honored in her own way.

Meticulous handcrafted details and warm and bright colors represent the contrast between challenge and hope. These are two elements that always go hand in hand in the life journey of special women.

Behind each design is a simple yet profound message: Physical disability cannot hide the heart's desire to be loved and affirm one's self-worth.

Not only is the show a showcase, it is also a place to nurture young talent. “Blooming” - a collection by two deaf child designers - is a clear demonstration of the power of leadership and sharing.

Under the dedicated guidance of fashion instructors and student interns, innocent ideas blossom into light and vibrant outfits.

Each outfit in “Blooming” is the crystallization of pure emotions and a very unique perspective, not bound by stereotypes. That creative flow shows that, given the opportunity, anyone can create beauty, even if they have never heard the sounds of the world they live in.

What is admirable is that they do not design to “fit in”, but to express themselves authentically. And on the catwalk, that difference really “bloomed”, just like the name of the collection.

Inspired by the image of the sky and clouds, symbols of freedom and transformation, the “Flying with the Clouds” collection offers a new perspective on fashion for people with disabilities.

All can be worn easily while still maintaining a fashionable shape. The material is light, stretchy, does not put pressure on the body, clearly showing the designer's sympathy for the wearer.

From pristine whites and hopeful blues to deep purples and passionate reds, the collection's palette is a spectrum of emotions, limitless, as is the spirit of those who transcend themselves to live life to the fullest.

An indispensable highlight of the program is the participation of 54 models representing 54 ethnic groups, most of whom are people with disabilities.

They not only perform, but also spread a positive message: Everyone has the right to be present, to be loved and to be seen as themselves.

It wasn’t the spotlights or the glamorous outfits, but the spirit of the models that made the night memorable. They showed that fashion is about showing scars, pain and pride.
