Áo Dài as a Gift — a homecoming present for those you love
Give your mother or grandmother an áo dài, then keep that moment together.
Some gifts cannot be bought abroad. Gao Nau helps you pick or commission an áo dài for your mother, grandmother or daughter when you are home, then sets up a shoot where you both wear áo dài side by side. A gift you can wear, and a moment you keep forever.
What the gift package includes
- Guidance to pick or commission an áo dài suited to the recipient
- A keepsake shoot of your loved one wearing the gifted áo dài
- Light hair and makeup for the session
- A beautiful setting in your hometown or a nearby landmark
- All edited photos delivered within 2 hours after the shoot
Who it is for
When you want to give your mother, grandmother or daughter a deeply Vietnamese gift on a trip home — a birthday, a milestone, or simply to say the love that distance makes hard to say. A gift rooted in where you come from.
Coming back to your roots
The áo dài is the most graceful symbol of Vietnamese women. Giving a loved one an áo dài and photographing together back home is a way to pass on pride in your roots — a gentle thread tying those who live far away to their mothers, grandmothers and homeland.

Frequently asked questions
What if I do not know how to choose an áo dài?
The Gao Nau concierge advises based on the recipient’s build, age and taste. You can choose from the existing collection or commission a bespoke one — we support both.
Will the shoot be comfortable for an elderly relative?
Yes. The session keeps a gentle pace, uses easy-to-reach settings and natural posing so mothers and grandmothers feel relaxed and happy, never stiff.
How do I arrange this from abroad?
Message the concierge before your trip, choose a city and date, and pay a 30% deposit to hold it. If commissioning a bespoke áo dài, tell us early so it is ready before the shoot.
