This customer portrait is part of a series of mini-blogs where we have interviewed some of our wonderful #mondoladies, based on their use of just #mondolady and #mondokaos on Instagram ❤️
This second portrait is by the wonderful author, lecturer and colorful dress lover Stinemaria Mollie Jensen.
Stinemaria Mollie is 45 years old and lives in Hvidovre. She is the mother of Mads, almost 20, and Liv, 15, and married to Lars. Stinemaria works as an author and lecturer, where she articulates the concept of sensitivity and the sensitive person. She is currently completing a new book about traveling as a sensitive person - when we did the interview she was on her way to Venice to put the finishing touches on the book. Stinemaria was kind enough to show us a sneak peak of the front and back of the book, and to our surprise both the front and back cover are adorned with beautiful pictures of Stinemaria dressed Mondo Kaos dresses in Venice! We were very happy and honored and we can't wait for the book to be published so we can learn a lot more about both Stinemaria and Venice!
Above: The cover of Stinemarie's first book where she was also in a dress from Mono Kaos.
Stinemaria's interest in dresses started a few years ago when she was learning Mondo Kaos to know. She can't remember if it was a friend who recommended the store to her or she had seen a post on Facebook, but one day she got lost in the store and was captivated by the colorful universe of swing dresses and petticoats. Before Stinemaria visited Mondo Kaos wasn't she a dress girl and she told us that in her childhood she was the only girl in her farm and therefore had to fight with the boys to also be allowed to play robber or Robin Hood when they played because she didn't bother always having to be the princess in the tower just because she was a girl.
However, she has always been very fascinated by the classic Hollywood movies shown on television as a child and the elegant clothes worn by actresses such as Marilyn Monroe and Lana Turner. It just didn't really feel like her, until one day in 2016 she suddenly needed a dress for a holiday, and thus wandered down to us in Mondo Kaos, and she hasn't looked back since!

Today, Stinemaria often wears dresses, both for everyday and when she is out lecturing, and she prefers colorful, waist-cut swing dresses where she can wear a petticoat underneath because it makes her happy. When we had to take pictures of her in connection. interviewed, it was also two 1950s-inspired swing dresses that immediately came into the rehearsal room after we asked which of our new fall styles she liked and would like to try.
The first dress Stinemaria tried was a new version of her favorite dress model, Doloresmodel from Unique Vintage, which we have just gotten into a beautiful, dark purple color that looked really nice to Stinemaria's hair color and skin tone! It is a classic waist-cut swing dress with elbow-long sleeves, a draped sweetheart neckline and a full swing skirt, made of a soft, breathable material with stretch that gives a really good fit! With black socks and black pumps, Stinemaria creates a formal retro look for everyday life!
The other dress Stinemaria tried on was the beautiful D'Laine dress from Very Cherry in teal / petroleum color. Stinemaria loved the color that made her eyes light up even more, and the lovely swing skirt where there was room for her petticoat underneath!
When Stinemaria is shopping, she is always very aware of what material the clothes are made of, because she is very material-sensitive, and she also always has in mind that she has an active everyday life and that her dresses should be practical and to move. therefore, it is important for Stinemaria that her dresses are made of a comfortable, soft and stretchy material that makes her feel comfortable, whether she has eaten extra well over the weekend or not, that they have pockets, so she is not addicted to a bag and that they have swing skirts so she can move and dance - with or without a petticoat!
Thank you so much for letting us interview you, Stinemaria! We look forward to seeing you again! If you want to get to know Stinemaria and her universe better, you can follow her on Instagram HERE!
