Last night we were lucky enough to be a guest at the Elle Magazine 18th annual Women in Hollywood gala. Presented by Calvin Klein, and L’Oreal, honorees Naomi Watts, Freida Pinto and Elizabeth Olsen all wore Calvin, designed by Francisco Costa.
Jon Hamm wore Junk Food while house-hunting with girlfriend, Jennifer Westfeld, in September 2011. The Mad Men hunk looked casual but hip in his Junk Food George Harrison tee, $36.

The award winning AMC show Mad Men is not only attracting millions of viewers in its fourth season, but it is inspiring fashionistas everywhere to throw it back to the 60’s. Hollywood actors like Piper Perabo and Alexis Bledel are sporting retro styles to red carpets, and fashion lines everywhere are offering old-school trends that are hot hot hot.

To channel January Jones’ Mad Men character Betty Draper, try high-waisted skirts, sweetheart necklines and pearls. She takes on that traditional 60’s housewife look, and those classics never go out of style. Perabo’s mesh-topped dress is so stylish and shows off her great body with a cinched waist. Betty Draper would have totally worn this dress, if a few inches were added to the hemline. Alice + Olivia makes beautiful dresses complete with a-line skirts, bright patterns, and conservative traits, mixed in with high hemlines to bring the look into the 21st century.

Christina Hendricks’ character Joan Halloway isn’t afraid to show off her curves with tight knee-length skirts, boat necks, and bold colors. Pairing a Mad Men inspired piece like an A-line dress or high-waisted skirt with a funky pair of tights, some leather, or a wild accessory will help add a little modern flare to your vintage look. Bledel goes with a business-casual navy skirt and silk blouse but tops it off with red-hot heels and a leopard print bag. She shows off her 1960′s style without losing her 2010 edge.
Ladies, get your man dolled up like Jon Hamm’s Don Draper with a sharp, tailored blue or black suit with the newest mens trend: the skinny tie. Hot celebs like Zac Efron and Ryan Seacrest have been spotted on the red carpet in these classic looks and it is definitely working for them. Hugo Boss makes some of the sleekest styles for men this season, and the thin textured tie paired with a classic silk suit will surely help your man look sharp.
We love seeing these beautiful retro looks coming back in Hollywood, so don’t be afraid to add a spark of 60’s to your look, or even go all out Mad Men, either way you will be on trend in 2010.

Mattel is now selling the “Mad Men” Barbie collection online. Style Seen Daily friend, actress Christina Hendricks, pictured above, looks life a real life Barbie so it’s only fitting she becomes an official one.
Show creator Matthew Weiner is a fan of Barbie and the collection took a year to produce. Ad executive Don Draper, played by actor Jon Hamm, and Roger Sterling, played by John Slattery, are also immortalized as dolls, complete in tailored suits with cufflinks. Robert Best designed the dolls and gave the Draper doll a 5 o’clock shadow and dreamy gaze to “add to his good looks.” Move over Ken, there’s a new toy in town.
Draper’s wife Betty, played by January Jones, wears a floral A-line Dress and Joan Holloway wears a sexy figure hugging dress to play on actress Christina Hendricks’ real life womanly curves.

We caught up with him and insisted he pose for a photo with us, he did not mention who he was wearing, but we do know that his light blue button down and dark blue blazer really brought out his bright blue eyes!
Guests enjoyed cocktails and tray passed Chateau specials like Macaroni Balls, but at the end of the night, as we waited for our cars at the valet, a big In-n-Out burger truck passed out delicious food to everyone!
