Let's take a look at the most fantastic, so as to match these classic retro styles.
When referring to Mad Men, the most notable character on a visible level simply needs to be Joan Holloway.

She knows ways to use her charm to her advantage, gets the men on her side, and yet is a trusted intimate to all of the girls at work too. Channel Joan's phenomenal style in tailored, bodycon dresses in jewel and earthy tones, coupled with classic heels for that famous walk. Perfect the beehive for an authentic 1960s look, and do not forget the winged eyeliner and excellent lips. With Joan, it is usually pure class.
If you're keen on the shift silhouette, look to the proficient Peggy Olsen for inspiration. She could just about be a predecessor to Alexa Chung's vintage style look, all about the Peter Pan Collars, and the shift dresses with lovable lace details. Scallop hems are a great way to bring a current twist to this cut, and make the straight profile of the dress more engaging. Add retro school satchels and hairbands for a look that is studious but pretty, polished and yet hints the wearer has more important things to do than simply look nice for the boys. Peggy is all about trailblazing in her career, preparing the ground for other women to reach in what's still extremely much a man's world. Her look so demands that she is for real, but she's still free to have a small fun too.
If you love the Crazy Men style but the more classic shapes, look towards the mum of Don Draper's kids, Betty. Character flaws apart, she always looks perfect, in her 1950s housewife style dresses and Grace Kelly electrified hair and makeup. Go for dresses that are fitted on the body but flare out at the waist, for a pleasant, feminine cut. Pair with smart heels and a cultured handbag for an outfit that screams vintage and yet never goes out of style due to its sheer beauty. You can update Betty's style with a fun, playful print. Look to Prada's 2012 vintage car print for inspiration, or go for fruit and veg for a funny take on the trend. Vintage dressing is all about having fun and looking to the beauty of the past as a technique to reinforce the present.
