How to Be Don Draper (or at least steal his style…)

mad-men-sunglasses_l AMC’s Mad Men is known for it’s sexy 1960′s fashion, but today it isn’t the ladies that are getting all the attention….

If all women want to be with leading man Don Draper, all men want to dress like him!

The plaid shirts and fly-fishing fedora worn by the fathers during the eclipse in last Sunday’s episode “Souvenir”? You can pick them now in any Urban Outfitters, and many hipsters are doing just that. Another (cheep) option? Steal them from your grandfather’s closet.

The obsession-worthy sunglasses (above) he sported in 2 episodes now? They look like  Tom Burke, but the company claiming credit — Randolph Engineering — wasn’t founded till 1972 (not cool on the era continuity, but I guess you can’t have eveerything…).

St. Pepper’s Hot Style Band

ragandbonecoatThis season’s military trend has us standing at attention!

The hot new Rag & Bone Napoleon Coat has especially caught our eye…. In true conqueror form, it’s stunningly made with a double-breasted front, shoulder epaulettes and a removable bottom.

Even though it’s still an up and coming brand, Rag & Bone made a serious impact on fall’s militial uprising* with their Sgt. Pepper-esque jacket. Stylistas like Rachel Zoe are saying, “it’s the perfect way to provide a tailored, yet feminine polish to any ensemble. Pair one over a thin sweater, black leggings and flat boots.”  You’ve been enlisted in the war for fabulous fashion! HUA!

*Other favorites?  D&G, Twenty8Twelve and Haider Ackerman.

Availability: Rag & Bone Napoleon Coat, ($695).
