With our Original Retro Swing Dress, you are ready to TrekBound into the final frontier! This vintage style dress replicates the four-panel "starburst" seam detailing and raised scoop-neck collar of those iconic mid-century space fashions that captured our hearts!
Featuring 3/4 length sleeves, a gathered swing skirt that delivers the perfect amount of swish, and pockets deep enough to hold all the necessities for an away mission, it's a classically flattering look you can wear to work, on the town, an while boldly going anywhere!
Want a little extra VA VA VOOM? Try wearing a petticoat/crinoline underneath! Kit and Victoria wore one when wearing a belt.
Fit: Made from a mid-weight Ponte de Roma, our Swing Dress has just the right amount of weight to give it a good hang and great swish when twirling around. It's fitted at the bust and waist, and free-flowing at the hips. It zips up the back.
On most heights this dress hits over the knee to mid-calf. This is a classic vintage length, which is the style inspiration for this design. It also accommodates more height varieties of our customers!
Want it shorter? We recommend taking it to your local dry cleaner/alterations place. Or you can also add Custom Alteration at checkout and we can shorten it for you! Please Note: Altered garments are FINAL SALE.

Made in the USA
I love this dress! The skirt has maximum twirl & it has pockets!
My only critique is that it runs a little small - I looked at the sizing chart, but I would have ordered one size up from my normal size, due to the very hourglass cut of the dress. However, the fabric is stretchy, so it works!
I am thrilled with this beautiful Uhura dress. I can’t wait to wear it to a con, but I feel like I could wear it just about anywhere. The fabric is high quality and it drapes so nicely. The fit is flattering yet not too tight, and it has pockets! The original Uhura uniform has always been my favorite but 56 year old me is no longer comfortable in a micro mini dress. I agonized between the medium and the large and I am so glad I went with the large. It’s a perfect fit. For reference I am 5’9”, measurements 37.5-31-39. I immediately ordered another one in gold. May have to get a blue one too for the trifecta.
This dress is great! It fits well and it moves well. And you can accessorize it in so many different ways.
