GQ Names Matt Weiner's Son Arlo "America's Most Stylish Eight-Year-Old"
Mad Men viewers are likely familiar with Marten Weiner, the young actor who plays Glen Bishop and happens to be the son of series creator Matthew Weiner. Now prepare to meet his brother Arlo, whom GQ magazine has named "America's most stylish eight-year-old."
According to the piece, young Arlo -- whose look is described as "part Oliver Twist, part Royal Tenenbaums" -- has been dressing himself "since the age of three -- when he asked his parents for a top hat." Since then, he's moved on to madras pants, fezzes and ascots. Here's hoping that Arlo and costume designer Janie Bryant collaborate on a collection sometime soon!

Excuse my previous post. I was able to view Arlo's outfits after all, and I must say, he is one cool cat. He has a bit of Dicken's artful dodger look going on in some of the pictures.
Is that the same kid? Doesn't look like Glen - and I'm sorry, dapper or not, that kid is CREEPY.
He's not the same boy as the boy who plays Glenn...he's his brother...and there's also another brother who played the boy having the piano lesson at Anna's when Don showed up.
As I understand it, MW has three sons.
P. S. How would you like that if someone said that about your son???
Sorry if that sounded mean...but, really, you wouldn't like it, would you?
P.S. You have a cool blog...love the stories about your mom.
.....That kid is crazy talented - like his father. Can't wait to see his new line.
Good luck, Arlo!

Lighten up Francis! (line from the movie "Stripes") I just meant the kid is creepy on the SHOW. He's like a Damian-type (another creepy kid).
Thanks for the nice comments about the blog...
.....Excuse me for overhearing your conversation, but what blog?

Life -- and Mad Men -- would be so boring without those Weiner boys.
