'Mad Men' 2012 Spring Collection Debuts
The show is back and so are the cool clothes: The 2012 Mad Men spring collection by Banana Republic launches tomorrow, inspired by scenes and wardrobe from the hit TV series.
The collection was designed by the clothing retailer in collaboration with the show's costume designer, Emmy winner Janie Bryant, and features more than 40 pieces of apparel and jewelery for men and women.
“In response to consumer demand following the strong debut of the Banana Republic ‘Mad Men’ collection in August 2011, the Banana Republic ‘Mad Men’ spring capsule returns," the brand said in a statement earlier this month.
The menswear collection features dapper separates, including bright polos, bold checked woven shirts, argyle vests and a sporty spring-weight navy blazer – sharp for the boardroom or club lounge.
For the ladies, the line offers sophisticated dresses in graphic florals and solids – including a cap-sleeve dress with reversible waist sash in lush cream, and a cheery pink nip-waist dress – cardigans, feminine lace shell blouses and chic coral cropped capris.
The collection launches as anticipation builds for the March 25 premiere of the show's fifth season on AMC.
