HÀ NỘI Vietnamese fashion designer Nguyễn Minh Tuấn has showcased his latest collection at Thailand Fashion Week 2024, with several international beauty queens and models walking the runway.

The Minh Tuân No.2 bridal collection is a fusion of the refined elegance of traditional East Asian attire and the grand, majestic beauty of European wedding gowns.

"Thailand Fashion Week 2024 is an international fashion showcase event that is held biennially in Bangkok, Thailand. It features the work of fashion designers worldwide across couture, homme, femme, accessories, footwear and jewellery. I believe this is a great opportunity to introduce the Minh Tuan No.2 collection and the latest footwear from the Minh Tuấn Couture brand to an audience of fashion industry experts, buyers and media from around the world," Tuấn said. 

According to the designer, each piece in the collection is created from a diverse range of inspirations and not only aims to elevate the alluring charm of the bride, but also carries within it the stories of the intertwined cultures.

The traditional high collar details, inspired by the Vietnamese áo dài (Vietnamese traditional dress) and Chinese dress, lend a refined and modest elegance to the designs, while the plunging necklines and off-the-shoulder elements add an alluring touch. The European-style mermaid silhouettes, combined with intricate embellished patterns, create a striking look for the wedding day. Additionally, the headpiece designs and 3D sculptural elements offer options for modern, fashion-forward brides.

The main materials used in this collection are high-quality, luminous fabrics complemented by exquisite lace, delicate chiffon and lustrous satin.

Its dominant colour is pristine white, symbolising purity and elegance, but shades of silver and ivory are also used, lending a soft and natural beauty that complements Asian skin tones. These colour choices not only accentuate the bride's beauty but also represent the fusion of the two cultural aesthetics.

“It is not just a bridal collection, but a celebration of the unique beauty and style of each individual bride. This is dedicated to those who wish to bring a fresh new breath, a culturally-infused elegance, to their most special day,” the 31-year-old fashion designer said.

Tuấn graduated as the valedictorian from the Fashion Design programme at HCM City University of Technology in 2016. The designer has previously created outfits that helped Nguyễn Thúc Thùy Tiên win the Miss Grand International 2021 title. 

His designs have been selected by many international beauties, such as Mireia Lalaguna Royo - Miss World 2015, and Natalie Glebova - Miss Universe 2005. In April 2023, he created two dresses for American actress Caylee Cowan to wear on the Cannes Film Festival red carpet. At the end of December, Drita Ziri - from Albania - wore a Minh Tuấn dress when she was crowned Miss Earth 2023. VNS
