Christina Hendricks’ breakout role was on the AMC series “Mad Men.”

As Joan Harris, Hendricks was the voluptuous redhead that stole the spotlight when she walked into the room, and over the course of a decade proved she was more than her looks.

While the series is coming to end this year, Hendricks has not let go of the character, and it seems her wardrobe.

In an interview with LA Confidential magazine, Hendricks talked about letting go of her character, life after the ad agency and she does it wearing ’70s favorites including flares, menswear and airy blouses.

Proving you can have curves and still tackle current fashion trends, Hendricks is the epitome of ’70s chic.

Here are some highlights from her interview:

On saying goodbye to Joan: “It’s sort of like when you finally get over a breakup, and then they come back and they want to go out on a date again, and you’re like, Wait a minute—I got over you! No, I don’t think I’ll ever get over it.”

On her new show “Roadies”: ““I knew I wanted to do another series if I found the right one, but I thought, How am I ever going to find something that I’m going to be this excited about? I’m the head roadie and a little more rough around the edges than Joan would have been. [She] doesn’t try to use her feminine wiles and doesn’t try to flirt her way into situations and things. She’s a very, very different kind of girl.”

On her status as a curvy girl icon: “I do think that Joan was different from other characters we’ve seen before. And I suppose when I think of an icon, I think of an image along with a feeling that you get from something. You say ‘Joan’ and you think of something very, very quickly … it was this resilience and this confidence that she had. It’s like hanging around a friend who has those qualities: You admire them.”
