Return to Neverland

This Christmas Harrods showcased a wonderful vintage marvel of luxury with their Peter Pan inspired windows. This run featured mannequins seamlessly floating on clouds with not a wire in sight. Hidden within the windows were screens displaying the film and hidden treasures within every inch of the theatrical displays.

The Weird and Wonderful

'We don't stop playing because we grow old, we grow old because we stop playing.

Selfridges are known for their extravagant window displays and this past season proved no different. Their playful inspired windows this year brought alive Oxford St. Taking me back to childhood memories of playing with Sylvanian Families.

Roll up Roll Up: Circus Feature

Circus themed windows are an exciting trend that pop up every season and they vary from gothic to vintage. I have put to together a collection that show the best of what London has presented.

Liberty of London 

  

Around The World: Paris

 I was lucky enough to take a trip to Paris last year and set within the romantic streets is the famous Printemps department store. Their windows coincided with the launch of Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland. Showcasing designers such as the late Alexander McQueen the giant props create a striking visual.

My Top 5 Seasonal Windows

Having seen many fabulous windows in my time spent studying VM (and the occasional shopping trip)! I thought I would share with my top 5 best seasonal windows to inspire you all.

Number 1

Bergdorf Goodman NY '08

My top seasonal window has to be the 2008 window run at Bergdorf Goodman 5th Avenue NY. The scenes showcasing all 4 seasons well filled with amazing items all featuring a element of surprise such as these white monkeys swinging from the chandelier. There were items that captured my attention where ever I looked and they remain my favourite windows to date. 

Number 2

Harrods '10

Following a Vintage Peter Pan Neverland theme this past year Harrods created a spectacular visual feast. I chose this window because I love the styling of the mannequin's wigs which saw a herringbone plait cascade from tightly curled afro wigs, placed within fabulously extravagant windows laced with luxury items such as crystal studded Iphones.
