Mad Men's costume designer Janie Bryant has my dream job.
I can't watch a single episode without drooling over the ensembles of every female cast member, while whining about being 'born after my time'. (By this, I mean, style era. I certainly could not have endured that much cigarette smoke.)
It's no doubt that fashion has adopted this look; hemlines are dropping, and camel is the most desired color of the season.
Here's how to channel this look with a modern touch.
A shift dress is a quick way to pull this look off and make it look effortless. Wear this wool shift to the office with a tweed blazer. Add jewelry and pumps for a perfect day-to-night outfit.
In special regard to Christina Hendrick's character Joan, choose bold gemstone colors such as emerald, sapphire, amber and violet.
This emerald party dress is a classic - perfect for the upcoming holidays. Pair it with these accessories for a Mad Men, holiday party look. Add a tailored wool coat to stay warm between party locations!
Here are some additional accessories to develop your own Mad Men style. Think full skirts, camel coats and red lips. The only thing left is a dapper, Don Draper look-a-like!
xx,
Krystina
