Once upon a time in a city called New York City, sits one of the most beautiful crowned jewels, far and wide. At 745 Fifth Avenue, this store sits, always greeting passer-bys, with a warm surprising window display, and the inside is a mecca of further elegance and luxury. But this time of year, the store shines even more brilliant than any time of the year. And it's enough to put even the grumpiest of Scrooge's in a good mood, and open that wallet.
Christmas at Bergdorf's..... the always magnificent windows centered around the different forms of art on Fifth Avenue, and the side windows featured their incredible fashion. As is tradition here.....the Bergdorf windows......
Literature.....
The arts.....
Architecture......
Painting.....
How incredible is this Music window??? Filled with all silver instruments.
Dance.....
Film.....
Sculpture....
The side windows centered on their fashion, with huge white trees and birds aplenty....... while the tree was filled with baubles, Chanel handbags, Jimmy Choo shoes, Prada wallets and exquisite fragances.....
David Hoey and his team did yet another spectacular job creating these master pieces , each taking days to install, just to create a magical season for the public. But don't stop there..... inside the luxe gem is just as elegant....the creamy paneled walls and elegant chandeliers become a wonderland of white, with snow laden trees and frosty branches everywhere. Taidermized doves, geese, swans and peacocks roost above the vitrines, displaying diamonds and opals, and other costly treasures......
And the levels of service in this store is what retail should be about! Wow!!! Not to mention you can find help in a snap. I came out of their glowing.....It's reassuring to know that this Grande Dame, and the most elegant department store in the world of retailing, still reigns supreme...and she seems to be living happily ever after!
I have never been to BG, nor to macy's NYC. but I can see how BG's windows would inspire you.
ReplyDeleteIt took me an hour just to look at the windows!
DeletePretty damn spectacular!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the tour!! Loverly :-)
ReplyDeleteI would love to see BG in person one of these days. I love the pics, and I'm sorry I wasn't around for the Monday post.
ReplyDeleteI have the feeling you'd get quite woosie if you saw there shoe salon.
DeleteOh how I love NYC at Christmas.......... No where like Christmas like the east coast really. I was blown away by these windows.
ReplyDeleteheh heh heh, you said "blown away"! happy holidays!

ReplyDeleteESPECTACULARES!!!!
ReplyDeleteSTUNNING yet again. GOD , I love Bergdorf Goodman. William and I go every two months to shop there. Their service is unparalleled and the store is just so elegant. I adore the film window myself, while there all so exquisite.
ReplyDeletePretty fabulous, I'd love a shopping expedition there, I love department stores - the more old fashioned the better.
ReplyDeleteI do believe you would have the most fun time shopping and just exploring the store. Its quite a treat to see. We could live there without ever leaving.
DeleteWow. It all so mind-blowing!!! My favorite is the architecture one. That is pretty cool, not to mention the blue wig! These are all great! And the inside!?!?!?!? There prices must be just as attractive?
ReplyDeleteLove all these windows so much.Thanks for sharing these with us!!!!! The music window is phenomenal!!!!
ReplyDeleteThat's one thing I love about being in La Grande Apple for the holidays. The Bergdorf Goodman windows really get the party started!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting them!
Magical!
ReplyDeleteEvery year the Bergdorf designs manage to out do themselves!!! Thanks for posting the nice post and sharing for us out of towners who don't have time to get there. Is the inside not incredible?
ReplyDeleteWow- amazing creations that are art in themselves. Sorry.....you just don't see this on the west coast. I can't even think of a store here that even comes close to reviling the elegance and upscale feel of Bergdorfs.
ReplyDeleteIt would take alot to trump Bergdorfs in elegance and service. And it still retains there old world charm.
DeleteThanks you for sharing these. Literature and the architecture windows are quite something. I have never been to ny, and definitely have never seen a store interior so opulent!!!!! It's heavenly.
ReplyDeleteTo me, this is what heaven would be like!!!!!
