Bergdorf Goodman Holiday Windows 2010

My favorite part of living in New York is being able to experience the Bergdorf Goodman holiday windows in person.  Each year, the senior director of visual presentation, David Hoey, and his staff create windows full of pure fantasy and over the top glamour.  The theme this season is traveling which includes a winged horse and flying carriage, as well as a silver space ship, listing boat, and scarlet train.  You really have to stand in front of them and marvel at all the details.  I think my favorite part is the moving backdrop behind the train.  It's simply amazing that they can create such splendor in such small spaces.  The windows are titled "Wish You Were Here" and I wish all of you were here.  For those who can't be, these photos are my holiday gift to you!  Enjoy!

Barneys 2010: Have a Foodie Holiday!

The holiday windows have all been unveiled and the funniest are always at Barneys.  Simon Doonan and his creative team are wishing everyone a Foodie Holiday this year.  One particularly cheeky window features everyone's favorite lady chefs including Ina Garten, Paula Deen, Martha Stewart, Sandra Lee all in personalized Snuggies. 

Sanda Lee, Food Network chef and newly elected first girlfriend of New York.

Anthony Bourdain and other chefs feast on Mario Batali in another window. 

The fire under the stew pot looks real but the dress made from Illy coffee packaging below is the real show stopper!  Have a Foodie Holiday everyone!
