How to Dress Like the Style Stars of Mad Men

By Teresa • Jun 10, 2015 MD

Mad Men is, without a doubt, a show that will live on as iconic for multiple reasons, from the plotlines to the characters, and most likely, the fashion. If you've been living under a rock for the past week or so (or just don't frequent the world of social media), you are probably unaware that Mad Men ended its eight-year run this week. Because of that, it's time to reflect on just how we can all dress like we're starring on Mad Men ourselves!

To achieve that timeless 1960s aesthetic, pay attention to silhouette, fabric quality, and tailored fits. You can explore modern vintage fashion by checking out our favorite trendsetting television shows, learning how to get the most out of the clothes you already have, and discovering ways to make your clothes last longer.

Here are key elements for mastering retro fashion:

  • A-Line Skirts & Sheath Dresses: Highlight classic waistlines and hourglass figures.
  • Structured Blazers: Add immediate polish for professional workwear outfits.
  • Vintage Accessories: Accentuate your ensemble with pearls, silk scarves, and heels.

For authentic series details, check IMDb's Mad Men page, or shop retro-inspired tailoring at Brooks Brothers.
