If you’re shopping for elegant women’s clothing in Ho Chi Minh City, Thuy Design House in District 1 should be on your list. The brand was created with a strong, yet, traditional woman in mind. The fashion line is inspired by nature’s brilliant colours and the feminine curves of a woman’s body. Thuy Nguyen, designer and founder, began her career as a successful painter, which can be seen in the painterly botanicals on the textiles. The clothing boutique is located on Dong Khoi, D1’s most fashionable street.
