I'd also highly recommend checking out Patrick McGoohan in Secret Agent AKA Danger Man. It's a precursor to The Prisoner and has much more clothing variety.

I'm busy coveting the complete DVD box set of Danger Man. Will have to order it from England though I think...

I've seen some stills of McGoohan in that series and his look is great there too; a little more conventional suit-and-tie but still very very stylish.

Im not a big fan of narrow lapels and narrow ties but Mad Men is a good show and I think they do a pretty good job on the costumes.
