Bergdorf's Windows


Bergdorf’s Holiday windows are, so over the top this year that they are a challenge to behold. ‘Labor intensive’ doesn’t even begin to describe this extravaganza of passementarie, quilling, encrustation, and taxidermy, with a dose of steampunk.


During the day, the reflections of Fifth Avenue
upon the glass offer some dreamlike surprises ...



But the general effect is dizzying.



If you visit after dark …



and get up close to explore …



you’ll be transported to a world of fantastical detail.











































Glorious, but exhausting, much like the Christmas season in New York!
