From the organizer:
A special fashion show featuring garments made from a unique Mekong Delta silk called To Xuyen.
This special black silk is a one of a kind fabric only found in the Mekong Delta area. This beautiful silk takes us back in time to the appreciation of the traditional handwork of Vietnam. The pure silk is dyed with natural black substance and dried in natural sunlight. The production of this silk from beginning to end takes at least 3 months, weather permitting. The dyeing and pounding procedures require patience and experience to bring our perfect silk to the highest quality in order to preserve traditional expectations.
