Mad Men, an AMC show that revolves around an advertising agency on Madison Avenue in New York City in the 1960’s, is one of the most visually appealing television series that I have seen. The women are properly curvaceous and catty and the men chain smoke cigarettes over business meetings and two martini lunches. The mysterious main character, Don Draper, looks like he has it all: a perfect, wife who used to model, the perfect children, and perfect hair. But as the series unfolds, his secret past is revealed in layers and he becomes more and more intriguing.
One of my favorite parts of the show is the style that it’s shot in. It truly feels like you are getting a glimpse into the 1960’s. All of the muted colors that are making a comeback today are present in clothing and home decor, and both men and women wouldn’t dream of leaving the house in anything but their best. I put together a little list of things that you would find on the show: 60’s inspired dresses, cocktail shakers, vintage office equipment and amazing shoes. Check them out here at As Seen on Madmen.
