Bergdorf Goodman ~111 Years of Extraordinary


When I walk into Bergdorf's, I often breathe a heavy, happy sigh.  That store just makes me happy.  When I was in fashion, styling to be exact, I often dreamed of what it would be like to style their breathtaking catalogs.  To me, that was the epitome of refinement and fashion represented in the most beautiful visual context.

Presently wrapped in their iconic purple ribbon, Bergdorf Goodman is ready to celebrate in a BIG way.  One hundred and eleven years signifies: 1 store, 1 city, 1 experience.  David Hoey and the visual merchandising team were very busy creating windows that not only take you down memory lane, but celebrate the exclusive merchandise made for this special occasion.  As always, the eye candy was intoxicating!











There are MANY exclusive items that have been created by top designers, all wanting to pay homage to "the great 1".  Included is the book Scatter My Ashes at Bergdorf Goodman, full of stories and anecdotes from fashion luminaries to long time employees.

I was in the other day, and while I am always excited, everything just felt a little extra special.  BG is really pulling out all the stops.  Between the people watching and the celebratory installations, I was mesmerized.

Wish You Were Here~2010

Day Tripping

When I was younger, I dreamed of being a stylist or visual merchandiser for Bergdorf's, because in my mind nobody does it better.  David Hoey, Linda Farrow and the visual department do not disappoint once again.
"Wish You Were Here", the theme of this year's holiday windows take us on a fantastical journey to far flung places with so much whimsey and imagination you need to study these windows or you'll miss something.

I can never get enough of this eye candy.  That's why Assouline has created the ultimate collection, Window's at Bergdorf Goodman, a limited edition tome at $550.00.  I guess I'll have to wait for the paperback.
