The Midas touch...

Club Monaco cleaned out a few closets and piled dishes, lamps, books and more  - sprayed them all gold and created a festive window perfect for the season. I love the depth of this window, and although massive, it could compete with  the mannequin displays but it does not and adds some eclectic style...



 
 

I'll have a Blue Christmas...

Take some incredible leather goods, add a door, and a arm to drop them off.. and you have a fun window from Smythson.  This is a great example of how to take a small single window and create impact with display. This is perfect as it uses Smythson's own product and boxes and does not use added props besides the door.  This can make a "blue " Christmas go into the "black"...
 

Waiting for the ball to drop...

Adding a few props ( Finally!), Micheal Kors creates a simple, clean, elegant window.  Love the metallic bulbs around the mannequin feet to compliment the black and gold fashion. Dress up the Holiday!
 

Snake in the glass...

Slithering across with a part of their heritage; Bvlgari uses the bracelet of their Serpenti Collection and highlights the beautiful necklace. The original uses over 3,000 diamonds - I am sure this one uses over 30,000 lights.  This display is a perfect cornerstone for 57th Street and Fifth Avenue; incredible detail, incredible sparkle, incredible Holiday. I would love to see this snake anytime in the city ...

 

Light the town RED...

Armani uses their LED light curtain to add some "red" to Fifth Avenue.  I always have mixed emotions on this curtain.  Sometimes video is hard to read, and other times it becomes a collage of crazy light patterns; but this time it's just right ... 
 
 

Harry in the sky with diamonds...

Beautiful lighted trim around the Harry Winston building. White LED looking like diamonds are perfect for the famous jeweler. Perfect for a stroll down Fifth Avenue.

Who let the cat out ...

Bright and beautiful, Cartier's classic Panther crawls up the side of it's iconic building. Created with thousands of white pin light the striking image is enhanced by the red ribbon created with red lights -- this is Holiday in NYC - the Cat's Meow!
