In celebration of the upcoming Mad Men season, the beauty gurus at Estée Lauder have produced a Mad Men Color Collection, a showcase that demonstrates the brand’s penchant for dramatic glamor collaborations.
In line with the show’s 1960s theme, the Mad Men Color Collection features dark-red nail lacquer, gold-tinged eye shadow and a creamy blush. The show’s ornate costume designs have inspired many in the fashion world with retro skirts and dapper suit designs, two mode themes that have set the show apart from the rest. What has not been seen, however, is a beauty line like this Estée Lauder one. With a new season of the show about to launch, more beauty designs by fellow companies may be on the horizon.
