Suggestion : Pointy bras in Mad Men

I can't watch the third season of Mad Men, but I'm watching classic movies of the 50-60's; with Natalie Wood, Marilyn Monroe, Doris Day... Sad that Natalie and Marilyn are dead :-(
Do you like pointy bras ? Do you wear that kind of bra ? Will you see Betty, Joan, Trudy, wearing one ?

Pointy bras make a comeback as sales of 'Marilyn Monroe' underwear enjoy an uplift
"Sales of the 1950's pin-up girl 'pointy bust' bra made famous by Jane Russell and Marilyn Monroe are seeing a remarkable uplift."

"The conical shape bras are enjoying a renaissance"

"The look set a trend that was a huge success in the 1950s and has been revived in subsequent generations,"

"John Lewis has seen a huge surge in sales of the bras, which it argues is indicative of a desire to celebrate women's curves that has followed previous periods of economic turmoil.
It represents a dramatic shift away from stick thin models with boyish figures who have dominated catwalks for a generation to the more voluptuous look of a Dita Von Teese.
The store claims the resurgence of the emphasis on curves even provides evidence that the worst of the recession is over and there are more optimistic times to come."

Mad Men style, hold the pointy bra

Hallelujah! is the refrain of those of us in desperate need of some good, scripted entertainment this election season--for Mad Men is back in full swing.

Walking around the streets of NYC, actual home of the actual Madison Avenue, I'm seeing fashion inspired by series making its way over to the other avenues too.
