Listening to the whiskey as it covers rock solid ice cubes in the offices of Sterling Cooper is a most gratifying experience. For AMC's Mad Men is more than a television drama, it is a state of mind. This meticulous examination of the social mores of the much idealized 1960's is certainly pretty to look at even if the mindset of the times makes us regret their naiveté. Yet, it is the look of the times, so beautifully researched and realized, that inspires us to celebrate the fifth season of one of television's best with an exclusive celebration of Mad Men style. If fifty years from now there is a show scrutinizing the way we think aujourd' hui, Dolldom is certain that it will not be as stylish as the very madly perfect depiction of Don Draper's realm.

They'll
be taking over Madison Avenue. 18-inch Miss Seventeen by Marx and
18-inch Miss America by Tonner Doll both wear Kitty Collier suits. The
fashions are superb, the doll I like a lot. But in all truth Miss
Seventeen is the one who takes the fashions into the stratosphere.
