These Designers are Doing the Mad Men Look at Sane Girl Prices

These stylish retro inspired dresses from Wallis (free worldwide shipping when you spend $100) are perfect for a brunch or spring/summer wedding. Full A-line skirts and fabric belted waists create beautiful silhouettes and come in a variety of  pretty patterns including versatile black and white polka dots and flirty florals.

As mentioned, Joe Fresh‘s Fall runway was filled with demure designs of two-piece knit sets, polka dot blouses, ruffled silk tops and pleated skirts. But right now in store with its Spring 2013 collection you can expect to find colourful drain pipe jeans, high-waisted short shorts and kaleidoscopic pencil skirts.

Designed in collaboration with Mad Men‘s Emmy Award-winning Costume Designer Janie Bryant, Banana Republic‘s much talked about Spring 2013 collection is all about the mod vibe of the era. Shift dress with shorter hemlines, keyhole details and checked capris all celebrate the colours and patterns of the era as approved by the more contemporary Megan Draper. Pssst… if you’re looking for even cheaper options, sister store Old Navy has a few Spring Fling dresses going for $25 and under right now.

Naturally Modcloth is always a good go-to for a modern twist on vintage styles. Their selection of fit-and-flare dresses are second to none and usually ring in for around $50.

And not forgetting some original vintage outfitters like online Canadian retailer Soop Soop, who sell repurposed clothing at better-then-new prices. Their stock is ever-changing, but keep an eye out for original 60s pieces like this Peggy Olson appropriate tartan babydoll or Joan-esque peplum (perfect for faking those killer curves).
