It is my favorite time of year, ok yes, Summer but more importantly, Mad Men Season 4 premiere!!! I have been anticipating this all year long. It is literally my favorite show of all time. Well written, beautifully directed and the costume, Janie Bryant is a genius.
When I started watching this show, I honestly didn't expect much. There have been so many shows that have tried to do this and could not seem to get it right. The costume is always off, the timeline is missing important details, all in all its just wrong. Then Mad Men came along and got everything right. The writing alone would make up for any mistakes. Symbolism done right and the dialogue is not overdone. Thank you to AMC for developing a much needed brilliant show. And as much as you want to scream at the chauvinistic men and the weak willed women, you see their flaws and begin to relate to them in ways unexpected. As much as you want hate Don Draper and his frivolous behavior, you pity him and realize why he is the way he is. These characters have come so far and have changed so much in the 4 years of their lives with Sterling Cooper, I can't wait to see what 1964 and 1965 will bring to them.
I do have to thank Janie Bryant for being one of my favorite costume stylists for bringing such inspiration to Sunday nights. She has made men and women everywhere want to dress better and reminded us of what true style looks like!
Here are some sneak peek photos of the Season upon us!!
During a coffee date with a friend yesterday, we concluded that Mad Men has raised the bar for us as far as how we want the men we date to dress.
ReplyDeleteI'm crying because I can't get Madmen on my *&^%$##@! cable. When a building advertises they provide cable, don't expect much. It's basic, basic, basic, basic cable. Love your blog and will have to find your store soon!
