Áo bà ba is a traditional southern Vietnamese garment. The top part that covers the torso is called the áo. It is mostly associated with rural southern Vietnam, especially in the Mekong Delta. Often worn as a top and bottom set, the áo bà ba is typically a long-sleeved, button-down silk shirt with a scooped neck, paired with silk pants. The shirt is long and split at the waist sides, forming two flaps, and customarily features two pockets.
