Watching AMC\u2019s Mad Men you can\u2019t help but favour the slick styling of the show. Men\u2019s suits have arguably never been given such intense focus than on the TV show where its characters are defined by style. Don Draper is the show\u2019s leader and, in the eyes of Elysium Magazine\u2019s Style team, is a discerning gent of impeccable style like no other.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"Every suit he wears looks good \u2013 every time. Whether formally dressed for the crucial business meeting, entertaining clients in the evening or hastily leaving the bedroom of his latest conquest \u2013 no matter the scenario looking good in a suit comes naturally to Don Draper, and it can be for you too.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

So how do you get a slice of style served straight from the sartorial platter Don Draper feasts on? Dissecting Don Draper\u2019s style DNA, Elysium Magazine notes how he prefers his suits soft and thick in the shoulders but tapered at the waist give (or show off) a more V-shaped silhouette \u2013 that classic alpha male physical trait. Don Draper\u2019s jackets are a little long at the bottom \u2013 great for taller discerning gent as this lengthens the torso but stick to shorter lengths if you lack the height. Finally, the fitting of Don Draper\u2019s suits are tight \u2013 no excess material at all.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

With these style characteristics in mind Elysium Magazine picks out four new suits that work these elements well. These Spring\/Summer lines will ensure you walk into the workplace feeling like a discerning gent with the style credentials of Don Draper. Compliment these suits with a crisp white tailored shirt and classic pocket square<\/span><\/a><\/span>. Don Draper would never forget the pocket square.<\/p>\n
