dress comes with a swing coat, and possible remnants of the "full Don Draper treatment" woman 's coat dress style.


If you love the Mad Men look, now's your chance to snap up a real costume from the series. The Mad Men eBay auction for charity includes three dresses and plenty of furniture from the Sterling Cooper offices.


Joan Harris' green dress is made for a perfect hourglass figure, with measurements bust 39”, waist 30” and hips 39”.





Bobbie Barrett's paisley dress comes with a swing coat, and possible remnants of the "full Don Draper treatment". Betty Draper's bright blue dress was inspired by the costume designer Janey Bryant's mother's engagement dress from.

The launch of Material Girl, the juniors' clothing line designed by Madonna and her 13-year-old daughter, Lourdes, has given New York magazine an excuse to pose a parent-baiting question on its cover







"Why do tweens dress like strippers?" It turns out that particular question isn't answered by the article it teases, nor is it clear that tweens are actually dressing like strippers. False advertising aside, though, the piece proposes a more interesting theory: That "our fetishization of youth" has created quite the sartorial paradox.




"Older women are dressing younger" and "young girls are dressing older," writes Alex Morris. The upshot is that "no one knows quite what to wear."




There is one stripper reference in the piece: "She can have the taste of a stripper, if I don't watch it," the mother of an 8-year-old laments. For the most part, though, it seems tweens are aspiring more to the edgy, mix-'n'-match, rock-'n'-roll look of Taylor Momsen, the face of Material Girl.





Morris describes watching an 11-year-old girl shopping with her father: She comes out of the dressing room "in skinny black jeans with a stripy tie-dyed pattern and a camisole printed with enough bubbly slogans to make Pollyanna claw out her eyes just for spite." Adorably, her dad goes, "



I don't think that goes together too well. It's a little wild for me." Then follows the daughter's apparent discomfort as she pulls at the clothes and her admission that, "yeah, I just realized it doesn't go so well."

Cinemax has ordered up the thriller anthology series, which will feature noir-style mysteries and strong female protagonists. Sounds great, right? Hell, it sounds like




Veronica Mars! It’s when you learn that it’s based on the men’s magazine of the same name that you start to grow suspicious.





(Or hopeful! Could there really be a magazine for men who would like to read in-depth interviews with smart, successful women?) Then you see that it’s exactly what you think
