Mad for Mad Men...

Well, aren't we all.  The fashion world can't get enough of Mad Men inspired glamour, we've seen Louis Vuitton hop on board with their Fall 2010 collection, Prada fell head over heels with the 50's style and debuted a number of 50's inspired dresses and the lady like box bags were pushed on us from every angle.  Just as we were starting to think the old school glamour was over and done with, Banana Republic have announced that they will be working with Mad Men costume designer, Janie Bryant to launch a 65 piece capsule collection launching in August 2011. The collection will have a little something for everyone, from blouses, suits, dresses and hats! Are we ever going to get over this Mad Men fashion fascination?

Confirmed...

January Jones will front the Versace SS11 campaign. Following in the footsteps of Hallie Berry, Madonna and Milla Jovovich the beauty will sizzle as face of the campaign with her milky skin and all American blonde bombshell hair. I wondered why Versace was her designer of choice as of late...

Mad Men Season 4...*Spoiler Alert*

Wow. The finale episode was absolutely fantastic, possibly the best Mad Men episode ever. I gasped as Don popped the question to Megan not Faye, wanted to applaud Peggy as she pulled in a new client, tell Don I was happy to see him happy and secretly felt sorry for Betty even though she has been a bit of a bitch. It rounded up a lot of story lines while leaving us guessing for season 5.  Will Don and Megan last? What will happen to Betty? How long will Joan's baby news stay secret? And what will Roger say?

Then it was the clothes, Janie Bryant you genius! Peggy was certainly a front runner in the fashion stakes this season.  Her peter pan collared dresses, ladylike coats and nipped in waists marked the change in her character - she even has a mutual understanding with Don now and vice versa! Joan was classically Joan, all hourglass silhouettes and pencil pun hairstyles. And then there was new comer Megan who was all full skirts and pretty paterns. What more could you want? Roll on Season 5 I say...
