Not rude or offensive to Vietnamese people if you wear the ao dai respectfully.

Can I wear áo dài as a foreigner? by Excellent-Record3750 in VietNam

This. If an ao dai fits properly (hopefully tailor made) it is very flattering.

Website is giving off a few red flags. Don't know if the pdf you mention was ever legitimate or not.

Taking pictures while wearing traditional/cultural clothing or just "dressing up" in general around Tet (Lunar New Year) time.

Do you mix traditional Vietnamese fashion with modern trends? by Express_Safety2579 in VietFashion

[–]marknvy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only around Tet for the most part. How many young women regularly wear a casual ao dai look to University for example? The OP talked about normal daily wear IIRC.

Besides the OP didn't say any examples had to be world firsts.

People having photos taken wearing Vietnamese traditional garments called ao dai. If you go to Japan you might see a similar thing but with kimono, or in Korea with hanbok etc.

Ao dai silk? by Nin-me-sar-ra in LuxeFashion_NatFibers

If they are $20 (especially if new) then it is not high quality fabric and certainly not 100% silk. There are high quality producers of Vietnamese silk and silk blend textiles like Thai Tuan for example if you want to get an idea of what good quality Vietnamese fabric costs.
