Aren't these women fabulous? I started looking at the fashions they wore (so very Mad Men!), but found myself looking at their beautiful faces, the make up and the hair...oh, the hair. I get that there is some serious wig action going on here, but even wigs have to be styled. And these gals are styled. Hours went into getting these looks. And then you needed the right jewelry (don't miss the bracelets) and even the right perfume. And of course the right underwear...this was work! To make a work of art.
