Retro & Vintage style A-line skirts from Mondo Kaos
Skirts are both comfortable to wear and easy to style. The skirt is therefore the ideal way to vary your vintage look, in a simple way.
The A-line skirt is both comfortable and very dressy. The A-line skirt is flattering for both women with large curves and for narrower types. The skirt is not typically the most festive of our vintage-style skirts , where you typically prefer the pencil skirt or the swing skirt , on the other hand, it is ideal as an everyday skirt, where you will always feel comfortable. We always have beautiful vintage style A-line skirts in sizes from small, medium and large to plus-size.
An A-line skirt sits, like all our skirts, to the waist, and creeps in to the upper part of the hips, where after it goes out in a trapezoid shape, or A-line, without extra fabric.
The classic vintage style A-line skirt
The A-line skirt in the cut we know today was first seen in the 1940s, when the A-line cut was practical and suited the fashion silhouette of the time. During the war years, the silhouette was completely simple, and due to rationing even without pockets or other decorations. After being out of fashion in the 50s, the A-line shape made a strong comeback and was fashionable in many different guises in both the 1960s and 1970s.
All our retro and vintage style skirts , including those in A-line, are of course high-waisted and fitted to the waist. So you get the classic hourglass silhouette regardless of which skirt you choose at Mondo Kaos. With the A-line model, there is typically just a little more focus on the upper part.
WE of course have the classic A-line skirt that goes to about the knee, but in addition we have a beautiful mini skirt, inspired by the fashion of the 1960s. With its A-line, our mini skirt is really very flattering and can be worn by all women, e.g. with a pair of nice boots.
A-line skirt for any season
The A-line skirt can of course be used all year round, depending on the material. We have A-line skirts from The Seamstress of Bloomsbury in their light signature crepe de chine perfect for the warmer months. But we also get A-line skirts in the slightly heavier and warmer fabrics for the cooler months.
As we only take home a few of each style, and have a large turnover in our range, this means that our selection of vintage style skirts also changes with the season. In the summer you will therefore mostly find the light models, perhaps in bright colors and floral prints, and in the autumn and winter the warmer models. It also means that you can visit the store/webshop often, as we get new items regularly, and your favorite A-line skirt may turn up if you didn't find it the first time. You can also sign up for our newsletter to make sure you hear about the news when it lands in the store.
A-line skirt for all occasions
No matter what type of A-line skirt you are looking for, we will be able to help you here at Mondo Kaos.
As the A-line skirt is a simple but flattering cut, it is ideal for putting extra focus on the top.
For example, an A-line skirt is ideal for a super nice top that you might want to tone down a bit. A plain A-line skirt is also beautiful as a base for a top or shirt in strong colors and patterns.
For everyday you can also choose to style your A-line skirt quite simply, perhaps with a retro print T-shirt, for a completely low-key vintage rockabilly look. You can also style with one of the beautiful 1950s style off-shoulder tops.
You can also style your vintage style A-line skirt for a party.
Should it be a drink after work or a big party? You can choose the delicious miniskirts in an A-line cut, or a knee-length A-line skirt in beautiful shiny fabric. Wear it with beautiful stilettos, a figure-hugging top and vintage accessories for a wonderful festive vintage look

Our retro A-line skirts are of a wonderful quality and the finest materials, which means that they are good at keeping both color and shape. We only carry brands that we ourselves can vouch for 100%, and these are brands that both care for the details in the design and in completing the skirts so that they can live up to the requirements that we set for a beautiful vintage style skirt.
Our brands are also very keen on an authentic vintage look, and many use the original vintage cut patterns adapted to our modern times. Thus, a little stretch may be added for the perfect fit.
