She's younger and not as polished, but has some pretty dresses. Peggy is just a bit dowdy and Joan, hot as she is, give the impression of constantly holding her breath. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/madmen-fashions#post-190709 Tue, 27 Jul 2010 16:54:23 +0000 judy 190709@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for posting those gorgeous photos, Mac. That one of Betty at the bar, silhouette style, was my fave! I'm a huge fan of this show. It's so brilliant. </p> <p>Everything changed in what seemed like overnight in the US in those years, 1968 to 1970. It was kind of a political and social revolution. The fashion too. I was in high school. Having no choice but to wear dresses to school and work was a reflection of many areas of not being allowed things just because you were female . It needed to change. </p> <p> I don't think that was the change that accounts for the slovenly dress in America now, though. I think it is the availability of cheap outsourced clothing, Walmart style, that is the cause. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/madmen-fashions#post-190654 Tue, 27 Jul 2010 14:24:42 +0000 Angie 190654@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Julie, that's a great blog topic.

Or even, in a decade, from these lusciouos styles to crocheted vests, bushy beards and ponchos *shudder* <a href="http://www.etsy.com/storque/handmade-life/hippie-handmade-weddings-circa-1972-baby-3742/" rel="nofollow">http://www.etsy.com/storque/ha.....baby-3742/</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/madmen-fashions#post-190559 Tue, 27 Jul 2010 05:32:40 +0000 RoseandJoan 190559@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have not seen the show but the fashion blows my mind, how did we get from this to boxy tees and ugg boots in the space of two generations? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/madmen-fashions#post-190536 Tue, 27 Jul 2010 04:43:39 +0000 Angie 190536@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like Mr. Draper's style best :0)</p> <p>Betty next and Joan third. Adore Rodger! </p> <p>I LOVE Betty's black and gold high necked sheath in the last photo. I'll take one of those please. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/madmen-fashions#post-190453 Tue, 27 Jul 2010 02:50:13 +0000 Mac 190453@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cookie - it sounds as tho' you have a lot of potential guests for your cocktail party right here on YLF : ) </p> <p>I know that a lot of you have never watched the television program and I figured that this slide show would help "bring you up to speed" on Mad Men style, if you were interested. </p> <p>It's funny; I've always loved clothes of this era but even when I was 15/16 and seriously slim, none of the vintage clothes that I could find from that era could would fit me - waaay too short in the arms, tight in the shoulders, etc. Wouldn't it be fab to find a seamstress who specialized just in clothes from that era and could custom fit each of us?! </p> <p>I agree that Joan's raspberry dress is incredible but I also think the flowered dress that Bette is wearing (when she's sitting in the chair) is lovely, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/madmen-fashions#post-190407 Tue, 27 Jul 2010 01:25:08 +0000 Theresa 190407@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh gosh I love those pics! If I was able to go back to another era that would definitely be it! Normally I love Betty's style the best, but I really like both Betty &amp; Joan's dresses here. (Not that I've ever seen an episode - just lots of images!)</p> <p>Cookie I'd love to go to a party like that - what a fabulous idea! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/madmen-fashions#post-190390 Tue, 27 Jul 2010 00:51:18 +0000 AlexSue 190390@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Such a classy era - for fashion, anyways.<br /> Cookie- that's an awesome idea! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/madmen-fashions#post-190359 Mon, 26 Jul 2010 22:23:45 +0000 taylor 190359@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE fashion from this era!! thanks Mac:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/madmen-fashions#post-190327 Mon, 26 Jul 2010 20:50:58 +0000 Cookie 190327@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you for sharing this. I have never seen the show but the fashions are to die for! I love everything about them. I want to throw a cocktail party and ask my guests to dress in "Mad Men" style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/madmen-fashions#post-190314 Mon, 26 Jul 2010 20:03:10 +0000 Mac 190314@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For those of you who love MadMen style - or even those of you who don't - here are a slew of new photos from the television series.</p> <p>I really love some of the mens styles, too. Ahhh, how I adore gentlemen with short hair and great suits! I could, however, do without all the cigarettes : )</p> <p><a href="http://blogs.amctv.com/photo-galleries/gallery-photography-for-mad-men-season-4/peggy-don-joan.php" rel="nofollow">http://blogs.amctv.com/photo-g.....n-joan.php</a> </p>
