Mad Men taking over NYC

The season premiere for one of lulu’s fav series is coming soon and the entire new york city is a buzz with specially themed events for Mad Men!
starting tonight with a party at The Gates, the festivities will continue all week 😀

Deets as follows:
For all you Maddicts in NYC, prepare for next week’s onslaught of Mad Men-themed events around the city. Next week, special activities — ranging from the artsy to the sporty to the boozy — kick into gear. And it all culminates on Sun., Aug.16 at 10PM with a spectacular outdoor screening of the Season 3 premiere in Times Square.

• Starting Mon., Aug. 10, the Hilton hotels on 1335 Ave. of the Americas or 55 Church St. are serving up period-perfect cocktails. That means that you can order a Brandy Alexander or a Tom Collins without having the bartender go “Huh?”

• On Wed., Aug. 12, the Museum of Arts & Design (aka MAD) gets into the spirit with a 3-minute loop showcasing advertising from the era, along with signature designs from the Sterling Cooper portfolio such as Belle Jolie and Popsicle. This public art piece will run through Sat., Aug. 15 and be projected on the museum’s facade, so get there after dark.

• For sports fans, the New York Mets celebrate their team’s inaugural decade (the ’60s of course!) with a special section designated for Mad Men fans at Citi Field. Lucky attendees will receive fedoras but everyone can enjoy the period cocktails served at some of the stadium’s bars. The game against the San Francisco Giants begins 7:10PM on Fri., Aug. 14.

And lastly, the week winds up with the premiere of Season 3 broacast on the big screen in Times Square on Sun., Aug. 16 at 10PM. Be sure to come dressed in your ’60s best for a pre-screening costume contest at 8PM.

Gotta find a great time piece that shows off the curves for the parties to come….have you got your outfit set?
