Mad Men Collection for Banana Republic

Retailer Banana Republic has teamed up with Mad Men costume designer Janie Bryant to create an exclusive collection for the store.

The Mad Men Collection will include both men’s and women’s lines inspired by the critically-acclaimed TV show.

According to Banana Republic, the women’s collection will include 1960s-era pieces like tailored dresses, high-waisted skirts, and silk tie-neck blouses.

The 65-piece capsule collection launches on August 11th and will be available online and in stores throughout North America. Banana Republic hasn’t released specific price points yet, but says they will be in the same range as other items sold in their stores.

    Every single outfit is beautiful. There is not one that I didn’t mumble a “oh, I like that” in my mind. Although this may hurt my bank card, it would so be worth it!

    I’m going to buy all of those dresses- all of them. I will tell myself it’s an investment and avoid my bank statement.

    Everything is so cute! Not my style, but I’m sort of in love with the first coat/dress combo.

    Love, but I think the model is a little to straight-figured for some of those dresses.

    I love the looks but I think they would have had more impact and Mad Men style had they used a curvier figured model.

    These are all perfect! I love Mad Men’s aesthetic, but I don’t watch the show (no cable). I’ll definitely be heading there and picking up 1-2 pieces at least!

    Are the sunglasses included? I feel like they make every outfit that much cooler.

    This is an absolutely brilliant idea. I’ve been waiting for a major chain to make 50s or 60s inspired clothing and now one of my favorite stores is going to. I will definately be ordering several of these dresses.

    That first outfit with the coat KILLED me. So classic and sophisticated! And the rest of the collection is beautiful, both feminine and smart. If only I had a deep enough wallet to shop at Banana Republic.
