Mad Men Style Recap, Episode 11: Joan’s Icky Emerald Necklace, Peggy’s Farewell Frock




Peggy
Peggy takes a meeting with Ted Chaough, Draper’s chief rival, to discuss a job. He gives her that and a raise instantly. Through this point in the episode Peggy had worn only yellow, orange, and blue. It’s clear that she’s put on her best “Joan” look for this meeting, right down to the double-breasted dress and back hanging scarf. The episode plays to the differences between Peggy and Joan, one valued for looks and the other for her smarts, but both, really, still having trouble keeping their heads above water. I’ll really miss Peggy storming into Joan’s office for a complaint and a smoke.
