If you’re a fan of the Mad Men collection at Banana Republic, it’s coming back.  The collection was so popular in fall 2011 and last spring that the chain is planning a third installment for spring 2013.

The capsule collection will launch exclusively at select Banana Republic stores and online beginning March 1, 2013.

Designed by Banana Republic in collaboration with Janie Bryant, Emmy Award-winning costume designer for “Mad Men,”  the collection takes its inspiration from costumes featured in the show, reflecting the mod vibe of the late ’60s.  The clothes move away from the Camelot era’s early ’60s look and into the late ’60s mod fashions. Spring’s collection incorporates fresh bold prints, bright colors and new silhouettes.

The menswear collection includes bold plaids and stripes, the emergence of the sport coat, and the sophisticated suit for the boardroom. The women’s collection celebrates color, print and pattern in iconic items like the era’s popular shift dress with shorter hemlines, keyhole details, and checked capris. Accessories include a mirrored heel shoe, graphic scarves, and geometric jewelry for women along with fedoras and skinny ties for men.
