The dress features a corset-inspired bodice that beautifully defines the waist, while the full pleated skirt moves gracefully at a 30” / 76 cm midi length. The satin shoulder bows add a touch of glamour, and the soft stretch lining in the bodice creates a flattering, cinched silhouette.

Until a few years ago, vintage clothing was considered to be anything from 1920-1979. But in many contexts, generations are used as a guideline, as a generation is approximately 25 years. This aligns well with the current fashion landscape, where many millennials have started embracing the 90s as 'vintage'. Younger than that, and it's referred to as upcycled or second-hand.
At Mondo Kaos, you'll primarily find vintage-inspired dresses, where the style is inspired by earlier decades, mainly the 1940s and 1950s, but the fit, comfort, and materials are created for modern use. All our vintage dresses are newly manufactured.
Our dresses may be inspired by, for example, the 1930s, 1940s, 1950s, or 1960s. This can be seen in details such as silhouette, waist, neckline, skirt shape, print, length, or feminine vintage details.
