Two young fashion entrepreneurs in Hanoi are borrowing inspiration from Vietnamese folk art as they transform ordinary burlap into one-of-a-kind fashion statements.
Dao Thu Trang, 31, and Tran Quynh Anh, 29, founded local fashion brand ‘La La La’ in 2020 with a commitment to promote eco-friendly clothing with a strong connection to Vietnamese culture.
Born in Thai Binh Province, a land known for its widespread production of jute trees and burlap fabric, Quynh Anh has been familiar with the material all her life.
