Vintage style pencil skirts at Mondo Kaos

Choose a pencil skirt in vintage and retro style.

At Mondo Kaos, we always have a large selection of pencil skirts that are all inspired by fashion from the 1950s and 1960s. This means that they have a touch of vintage glamor about them and that you immediately sense the feminine elegance of the pencil skirts, but at the same time they are of course adapted to our modern needs, so they are comfortable to wear and easy to move in. This way you get the true vintage pencil look without having to compromise on comfort.

The classic vintage style pencil skirt

While the pencil skirt was already in use in the late 1940s, it was in 1954 with Dior's H-line collection that the pencil skirt really came into fashion. The silhouette was tight but still focused on a beautiful feminine silhouette. The pencil skirt went below the knees and was initially not easy to move around in as the fabric had no stretch, hence the name wiggle skirt because of the wiggle you were bound to have in this skirt.

While our gorgeous skirts are designed after vintage models, they all have slits and are made with light stretch fabric for easy movement and a great vintage silhouette.

Why choose a pencil skirt

No matter when you need your pencil skirt, we have a varied selection to ensure you can find a pencil skirt to suit your taste.

Pencil skirts are traditionally considered the 'sexier' skirts as they really hug the hips and buttocks. However, even though the skirt is tight, it can easily be worn both in everyday life as well as for festive occasions, depending on your preference and styling.

Pencil skirts in many colors and sizes

We always carry a fixed selection of some of our pencil skirts from e.g. The House of Foxy and Daisy Dapper. We have carried these for a long time simply because they have proven time and time again to be a great choice. We always have these are classic colors such as black, red and navy, as well as seasonal colors, so you can always upgrade with a new vintage style pencil skirt.

From The House of Foxy we have the lovely, slightly longer pencil skirt, which gives a super classic vintage look that definitely can't be confused with a modern version. It is also from The House of Foxy that we have a pencil skirt variant with a waterfall effect, which in addition to being super feminine and elegant also has the advantage of hiding the area around the stomach, so it is a good choice if you are one of those who do not like too much focus here.

From Daisy Dapper we have a lovely pencil skirt that is slightly shorter than the model from The House of Foxy, this model is especially good for shorter women or those who prefer to show more leg.

Of course, we also get other pencil skirts from other brands, depending on the season and collections.

Of course, we always have vintage style pencil skirts in many colors to choose from.

In addition, we carry pencil skirts in many sizes from XS to plus size.

How do I style my pencil skirt?

You can style your vintage style pencil skirt from everyday simple to party and colorful.

For example, if you want to wear your skirt to work and in everyday life, you can style it simply with a retro print T-shirt or jersey top. You can also style it with one of the beautiful 1950s style off-shoulder tops, or the lovely embroidery tops in real summer style to add a bit of fullness in contrast to the simple bottom.

For cooler days, long-sleeved shirts are also a beautiful vintage look, and if you're feeling a little more festive, for cocktail hour or a celebratory event, you can style your vintage style pencil skirt up with beautiful shoes and vintage accessories. Stick to a basic color with solid accessories in a contrasting color for an elegant and festive vintage look.
