Thai Nguyen Couture

OMG THAI!!! I will post photos soon, but let me just say the custom ao dai made for me was soo beautiful! It was exactly what I wanted and it magically complimented my husband’s ao dai as well! I am not Vietnamese, so searching for an ao dai that was wedding worthy and beyond passable for my in-​laws was pretty intimidating. Thai is just so cute and sweet, he made my friends and I feel comfortable right away. He helped me to understand the different styles (traditional and modern) and helped create something that looks sooo good on me! This was particularly helpful as a not tiny asian women (which I know is a concern for many non-​viet/​non-​tiny women looking to get an ao dai) but Thai made the dress look bomb on me! I seriously cannot count how many times my Vietnamese family and friends told me how dep it was. PLUS they all know Thai from Paris by Night so that name drop definitely elevated it. Thank you sooo much! highly recommended to all brides looking for a custom ao dai. It’s well worth the cost.

Thai Nguyen made an ao dai for my wedding. It is gorgeous! I showed him an ispirational ao dai I want from pinterest! He made a couple of suggestions to make it look contemporary and I went ahead with it. We embroidered crystals on the ao dai and head piece. A good designer gives suggestion to make things even more gorgeous and he’s it! He delivered the ao dai on time. Quality is great! Fits perfectly. I shopped a couple of stores before coming back to Thai Nguyen. His ao dai was the most expensive but it was worth it! Great customer service!

One word amazing! If you are planning on having Ao Dai done for your wedding or special occasion this is the guy that you want. I also went to Calvin Hiep and really did not like the way he handles business. Basically Thai will create one of a kind wedding Ao Dai for you. He spent a significant amount of time with me to look at what I want and gave me a lot of useful tips. Also he is very professional and punctual. Delivers as promised. He created such an amazing and beautiful evening gown for me that I wish I had him do my wedding gown instead! The Ao Dai and evening gown was so beautiful that I actually had him do a cocktail dress in addition as well! Highly recommended without reservations.

Have you ever watched one of the Vietnamese music dvds such as Paris By Night, Asia Entertainment or Van Son Productions and go wow where do those one of a kind pieces that the performers are wearing come from?!
Well look no further! There are about 3 – 4 designers that custom design the gowns, ao daïs and other costumes that the performers where when on stage and Thai Nguyen Couture is amongst the best of the best.
Thai graduated from FIDM in Los Angeles and continued on to be one of the youngest designers for BCBG Max Azria! He brings a sophiscated yet fresh atmosphere to his couture pieces and gowns.
Thai and his managing partner, Helen, can help you custom design a traditional (or not) Ao Dai for your next Vietnamese family gathering, an evening gown for a Gala or Formal, uniforms a la costumes for your restaurant staff (pssst check out Crustacean Beverly Hills’ staff uniforms), and even WEDDING GOWNS for YOUR BIG DAY!
I don’t think you’ll be disappointed when you come to Thai Nguyen Couture because everything is custom designed and custom fitted for YOU. It’s all about YOU so you don’t have to worry about the fabric and color not matching your frame or skin tone and you most certainly do not have to worry that SOMEONE ELSE will be wearing the same outfit as YOU!
