The clothes look really great, but we have to laugh. When the last season ended a year ago, we were well past the early ’60s and when the new season starts, we’ll be entrenched in the late ’60s, but here’s another “Mad Men” collection of early ’60s looks. Not that we blame BR; that mid-Century coolness is a great fit for their brand and these styles are classics. But we wonder if some of the, shall we say, excesses of late ’60s style will have the renaissance that the Camelot-era styles have had in the wake of the show’s success. We’re thinking no.

And Gandy looks like a gay porn version of Don Draper here. Not that that’s a bad thing, mind you, just that the various bulges are jarring on someone who looks so much like the character.
