After a year-and-a-half hiatus, AMC's Mad Men makes its long-awaited return March 25 with the word "wedding" on everyone's lips. While fans barely got to know Don's latest secretary before his sudden proposal, we do know costume designer Janie Bryant will turn out a bust, waist, and hip-accenting creation for her retro bride... that is, if we get to see her walk down the aisle. From sleeved columns to bateau ball gowns, these wedding dresses from the Fall 2012 collections all capture the buttoned-up sex appeal evoked by the Joans, Peggys, and Bettys of the late '60s--martini not included.
