On Mad Men, Even An Uncomfortable Dinner Party Is An Occasion To Dress Up

Sterling Cooper’s higher-ups celebrated Derby Days this week—Pete Campbell and his wife Trudy cleared the dance floor, trophy wife Jane made some serious party fouls, and Don and Betty (what else?) brooded and looked fabulous. But it was at a decidedly more quaint affair across town where we found our fashion moment.

Joan played trick pony for her husband’s doctor cronies at a buffet style dinner party she put together. Joan didn’t look too happy to be put on display—accordion and all!—but she was wearing the right outfit for the spotlight: a form-fitting LBD bedecked with red roses. Tuleh makes an updated version ($1750) for those of you with a chief resident’s budget.

Or simply peruse our dresses, fall fashion, and discount guides to find options that are more budget-friendly but equally as chic.
