The trousers have an easy full-legged fit, centre back zip, and faced waistline. Suggested fabrics: Lightweight, drapey fabrics such as silk, polyester, or cotton gauze for Tunic and/or Trousers; also embroidered brocade for Tunic. Ao Dai trousers are typically white; the Tunic can be plain white, a plain or patterned colour, or the traditional red and gold for a wedding garment.
