Fashion designer Minh Hanh has been selected for the prestigious 'Knight of Art and Literature' award from France.
The celebrated designer has been conferred upon this title for her role in promoting Franco-Vietnam cultural ties using the platform of fashion.
French Minister of Culture and Information Renaud Donnedieu de Vabres announced the decision in a letter sent to Hanh, who is also a Director of the Vietnam Fashion Design Institute (Fadin).
Hanh has put her best efforts in strengthening relations between Vietnam and France in fashion through programmes signed with French Fashion Design Institute.
Hanh, one of Vietnam's leading ao dai (traditional Vietnamese dress) designers, has also teamed up with French directors and artists to direct Vietnamese and French cultural programs at Vietnam's Festival Hue and introduced Vietnamese fashion in France.
