A-line dresses in vintage style
At Mondo Kaos we have a very large selection of vintage style and retro dresses , so to make it easier for you to find just what you are looking for, we have divided our vintage style dresses into categories.
Here you will find dresses in many different designs inspired by different eras, all of which have in common that they are dresses made in the so-called A-shape.
The A shape denotes the shape the skirt, or lower part, of the dress has from the waist down. The A-line dresses from Mondo Kaos naturally sit at the waist like all our clothes, which focus on a female figure.
A-line dresses are thus an excellent dress for virtually all body types as they fit at the waist and slowly go out in an A-shape in varying lengths.
An A-line dress can be a single classic dress, a shirt dress or a wrap dress, and if you are looking specifically for a skirt dress or a wrap dress, you can also look for it in these categories.
Vintage style dresses in A-line for everyday and parties.
At Mondo Kaos you will find beautiful A-line dresses in vintage style for both everyday life and parties in many different colors and in various prints and designs.
Perhaps you think that the A-line dress does not have quite the same glamorous flair as the swing or pencil dress, but in fact the A-line dress is versatile and can be very elegant.
Many of our A-line dresses are based on original patterns from the late 30s and 40s, and have all the feminine elegance and flow of that time. Some of our most flattering and popular models belong in this category. See, for example, the ever-popular Ava dress.
The A-line dress's refined cut and soft fall can give this type of dress real Hollywood glamour, and it is also often on these dresses that you get the fine must details such as puff sleeves, fine stitching or draping, as shapes are suitable for that very expression.
An A-line dress is a must in every vintage lover's wardrobe as it can be styled from everyday to party in an instant.
All the dresses are from our carefully selected vintage style brands, who all make clothes in high quality materials and with love for the authentic vintage style. We have made sure to put together a varied selection in order to ensure that you can find an A-line dress that fits you and your needs perfectly.

Why we label our dresses "Vintage" & "Retro"?
As you may have noticed, we use both the terms 'vintage' and 'retro' for our dresses, but is there really a difference between a vintage and a retro dress ?
There actually is, but there is no clear definition, so we will try to give ours here.
Vintage refers to clothing produced in approximately the year 1920 and up to 1980 - this can be home-made or in small or large productions. As our dresses were not produced in this time period, we describe the dresses as "vintage inspired" as that is exactly what they are. They are inspired by the fashion of the decades 1940 , 1950 and 1960 but produced today .
The term Retro came into being in the 1960s and refers to something from "back in the day" - and since our dresses are precisely inspired by fashion from the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s, we also describe them as Retro dresses .
Actually, there is the term "Repro", which is probably the term that best describes our dresses, as repro stands for "reproduced" - i.e. dresses that have been produced again.
However, not many of our customers use the term Repro, but instead describe our dresses as " Retro dresses " or " Vintage dresses " and therefore we have chosen to do the same.
Looking for more than just a dress?
A retro dress can easily be combined with shoes with a modern look. In fact, something beautiful, exciting and interesting can actually arise in the dynamic between the stylish vintage style of the dress and a pair of brand new, modern shoes or stilettos.
However, it is also beautiful to go completely retro and wear retro clothes from head to toe, and if that is your plan, you can find all types of retro clothes with us.
