When Mad Men premiered in 2007, the red-headed Joan Holloway sashayed across the screen and created an explosion. With one gorgeous gam in 1950's housewife suburbia, male serving dreamland, and the other in capable, self-determined career world; Joan is one of the most complex feminist icons on television these days.
But lets get back to the undeniable, Joan has a figure that won't quit and knows how to dress it well. Her well-tailored dresses and pencil skirts magically manage to be professional and provocative at the same time, although her confident, bold walk might have something to do with the provocative. Also, lets not forget her fantastic gold pen necklace...
While possessing her share of human weaknesses, Joan is in charge and in control. She rules with eye-contact, a saucy quip, talent, and her huge brain. We love Joan and are so pleased she is finally back!

Thank goodness for Joan. She helped spur a re-appreciation of the hourglass figure in the fashion world (seen in the cinched waists and retro cuts of the last few seasons), but also within the women who have have this shape. Curvy girls everywhere are holding their chins a bit higher because of this unapologetic marvel.
