The Ly silk brand, in co-operation with Hoi An Silk, created the luxurious silks, which carry images of villages.
Hoi An Silk Village, located at 28 Nguyen Tat Thanh Street in ancient Hoi An town, is a silk-weaving centre and museum of the ancient trade in the central region.
The village was voted as the third best attraction in the UNESCO-recognised world heritage city on TripAdvisor last year.
The village cultivates 40 strains of mulberry used to produce some of the country's top quality silks, including some even used by the former Cham rulers of the area.
The beauty of the village, live demonstrations of Vietnamese silk weaving, and showrooms of silk suits and dresses make it an apt place for the Vietnam-Asia Silk Culture Festival in March.-VNA
