The ladies of
Mad Men are hotter than ever this year and we love the idea of dressing up as them for Halloween, especially since the clothes are oh-so-covetable. With the
Janie Bryant for QVC line, and so many vintage inspired dresses at ModCloth – it’s especially easy this year:
For starters, the curvaceous Joan Holloway, with her form-hugging dresses and mod accessories, is one costume that will make your guy’s mouth drop.
Paired with her signature red hair, this firey
Wardrobe Essential Dress ($79.99) from
ModCloth is exactly the type of piece Joan would wear around the office. But it earns bonus points for being totally wearable (and wallet-friendly!) in the real world, too.
Leopard is everywhere this year, and this
Janie Bryant MOD Retro Animal Print Handbag ($79.75) from Mad Men stylist Janie Bryant’s
QVC line, will be the perfect complement to your siren-red dress.
Joan often accessorizes with brooches and this
MOD Multi Color Floral Motif Pin/Enhancer ($72.50), also from Janie Bryant’s
QVC line, looks like it could have been found in a vintage store. Just throw on a pair of great
pumps and a swipe of
red lipstick, and you’re all set, Ms. Holloway!
But Joan isn’t the only Mad Men-inspired Halloween costume we have in mind this year. There’s also Betty Draper, whose more demure sexiness is wrapped up in ladylike frocks and lace gloves.
This
Rose Menagerie Dress ($117.99), also from
ModCloth, has Betty Draper written all over it. And we’re already planning on wearing it to garden weddings come spring.
These leather bomber jacket once they’ve served their Halloween purpose!
The key to this look, though, might just be a pair of sweet
lace gloves ($2.98). If you’d like, add on a
headband and a
ladylike purse, and you’re good to go!
