I agree, not so much because it doesn't look like a dress - a lot of the time, it does look like a dress. But I agree because the ao dai is unisex. It's like if kimono was suddenly changed to implicate a dress, when it's unisex. Contrast this with China dress, which makes sense because the modern qipao is worn only by women. So calling the 'ao dai' a 'dress' gives the wrong impression of who can wear it, I think.
