In another show, designer Le Lam debuted his collection 'C'est La Maison', a line inspired by buildings in HCM City from the 1980s.

The collection uses key colours such as white and black to highlight a dynamic and modern city at night.

According to the organising board, a panoply of shows will be arranged after the 2020 VIFF, including the International Music Festival and the Vietnam International Movie Festival.

They are set to be held in famous tourist destinations across the country, aiming to create a series of fashion and lifestyle events and promote Vietnamese culture and tourism.  VNS
