This article appeared in the January 1962 issue of Good Housekeeping magazine.
The layout and (of course) the fashions are very much of the era, and they're currently making me anxious for the return of 'Mad Men', coming back for its 3rd season this Summer.
(For more of 'Madmen' follow links, while they last.)
In addition to this spread, photographer Richard Heimann shot the cover images for several jazz and pop record jackets back around this same period.
Heimann was also the second husband of pioneering supermodel Carmen Dell'Orefice.

The outfits in the article are all touted as home sewing projects from Simplicity Patterns.
