Mad Men's favorite women: Betty, Peggy and Joan. Each has a very distinct style that captures the era and their personalities.
Don Draper and his stylish entourage of advertising executives and spiffily-dressed secretaries–actually promoted to copy writers and office managers now–are back Sunday with a new season of secrets and style.
The sixties-era fashion in the series has had women yearning for the clothes worn by their mothers and grandmothers. In a bit of serendipity, current trends have reflected some of those vintage touches. Fuller skirts and A-line dresses, bold jewelry, saturated colors, florals and polished styling are emblematic of the early and mid-60s.
While there are plenty of ways to go retro without looking old-fashioned, Banana Republic and Estee Lauder have Mad Men-inspired clothes and makeup. No need to hang around attics, eBay and secondhand stores.
