The former Tourism Ambassador strode down the glam walkway wearing what is more than just luxurious garment: a hand embroidered Ha Long famous scenery on a stunning gown.
Last year she boldly introduced Son Doong Cave and Ho Chi Minh City printed on giant panels right across Cannes main red carpet and we thought nothing could surpass that. This year, the beauty seemed to skip any medium and wore directly her country down the walk of fame.
This master piece of art – her dress was named (yes the dress itself had a name) the Oriental Sun from the one and only Le Thanh Hoa. It came with a hand embroidered cape depicting the epic scenery of Ha Long Bay, making her the “Lady of Nature” walking down that red carpet.
And surprisingly, het set of jewelries to accompany the dress was only about 200 dollars. Standing on one of the most glorious red carpet in the world, Ly Nha Ky made a statement about being glamourous with the right accessories, regardless of the price tag.
With the rising sun at Ha Long Bay in mind, the talented Le Thanh Hoa meticulously created
a stunning design. He made sure the dresses wrapped around her body as much as it shined with all its Ha Long glory.
Nothing speaks internal flame than the sun, and a few things can represent that heavenly scene like Ha Long Bay. The beauty hoped that these beauty images would bring Vietnam closer and closer to many international friends.
It was a very tight-fitting dress, with 3D draping techniques creating images of the wingsail
on both sides of her shoulders and waist. The look was completed with a golden sun detail front and center.
With gold and white taffta material completely imported, the soft but noble color delineated a sense of high class and luxury. To fashion the cape, only the most proficient artists worked night and day in 3 whole months to hand embroider Ha Long Bay scenery.
Ha Long Bay has long been recognized as one of the most beautiful scenic attractions in the world. Since her day as the Tourism Ambassador of Viet Nam, Ly Nha has shown her unmatched love and dedication in bringing this Vietnamese natural beauty into worldwide popularity.
“Even though my time as the Ambassador ended but the responsibility I still carry, I still can use my influence to make contribution to Vietnam Tourism. Through this design – The Oriental Sun, I want to once again showcase the beauty of Ha Long Bay to as many international friends as possible”, shared Ly Nha Ky.
As the only representative from Vietnam officially invited to Cannes, Ly Nha Ky’s appearance marked her role as a film producer and investor, and an individual sponsor for Cinefondation. Through these last few days, Ly Nha Ky also appeared on French media to raise her voice about women right. She is breaking all grounds and solidly positions herself at Cannes.
“This year I especially wanted to address women right both in films and in life. I mostly participated in events related to films of female directors all around the world like today with Capernaum by Lebanon Nadine Labaki”, she continued.
At the end of the day, Ly Nha Ky joined the premiere of “Knife + heart”, a candidate for the Golden Palm. This is one of Charles’ production, her dear friend at Cannes who also co-produced E-book with Ly Nha Ky.
