At the corner of Trang Tien-Ngo Quyen, a “mobile” accessory store is constantly crowded with customers. The most popular items are heart-shaped flag stickers, headbands, and small handheld national flags.
Ms. Lan Anh, a shopper, said: "I had prepared a red-star-yellow-flag shirt at home, but when I got to the street, I felt I still needed a small flag to wave to liven up the atmosphere, so I bought another one." Mr. Hung Nguyen chose two heart-shaped flags to stick on his cheeks for his two children. He said that taking the children to see the parade helps them feel the spirit of patriotism, but he also needs a few more accessories to make them more excited.
According to our observations, we noticed that the sellers did not show any signs of increasing prices, but the products were sold at quite reasonable prices. Each heart-shaped flag was sold for 10,000 VND/piece, hand-held flags from 10,000-15,000 VND/piece, scarves were 50,000 VND/piece, hand-held paper fans were 15,000 VND/piece...

When the streets are filled with flags, when the Ao Dai, scarves or words on the Ao Dai evoke the pride of the history of building and defending the country, that is also the time when the spirit of national solidarity and attachment is strongly aroused. Costumes become a vivid message of love for the Fatherland, more intimate and spread strongly on the Independence Day of the nation.
According to experts, the "patriotic" fashion trend does not stop at the beauty aspect but is a way to remind the younger generation of the resilient struggle of their ancestors to gain independence and freedom today.

Red T-shirts with yellow stars are also popular, and are sold at affordable prices on many streets. Children’s T-shirts vary in size by 5,000 VND, from 50,000 to 75,000 VND each. Adult T-shirts range from 90,000 to 11,000 VND each.
Ms. Bui Thanh Ha (a clothing vendor on Ngoc Lam Street, Bo De Ward) said that in the past week, red T-shirts with yellow stars printed on them have been selling very well. "Every day I sell nearly 50 T-shirts, not to mention customers who buy shirts also buy small flags to wave and decals to stick on their faces. No one bargains because I mainly sell to serve the people, the price is reasonable," Ms. Ha said.

The spirit of celebrating the 80th anniversary of National Day has also spread to the culinary field. Some cafes and bakeries in Hanoi have also "caught the trend" by creating drinks and cakes inspired by the national flag. Products with red and yellow stars have become a unique way for shops to express their patriotism and spread the atmosphere of celebrating the 80th anniversary of National Day.
Ms. Nguyen Mai, owner of a small bakery in Thinh Hao Alley, said that these days she is always busy with orders of cakes decorated with the theme of “patriotism”. The box of Tiramisu cake with yellow star candy costs 95,000 VND/box and is very popular with customers. According to Ms. Mai, she plans to make 100 boxes of Tiramisu cake with the theme of red flag with yellow star for this September 2nd occasion.

Many other types of cakes are also conveyed by bakery owners with the theme of love for the country. For example, moon cakes made from molds with the map of the country are also becoming a trend, being "put on air" by bakeries, and are enthusiastically received by customers. Even xu xe cakes, a traditional cake, are stylized in the shape of the national flag, becoming one of the best-selling cakes during this occasion.
