Previously, I featured the Christmas window displays at Saks Fifth Avenue. This is the season’s store interior (click here for more photos) – isn’t it magnificent? I complimented the staff on the design and execution; they were so friendly, with no issues whatsoever taking photos (this is not always the case – I was reprimanded at Sephora at the Scribner location). In fact, they were very excited, took my card, and promised to check out the photoblog.
I was informed that Saks has its own in-house visual design staff. I am not a shopper at all, but this is the type of decor that inspires one to explore the high-end retailers. Click here for an exterior photo showing their snowflake lighting. If you are at all interested in NYC, visiting stores and its neighbors along Fifth Avenue is a must at least once in your life. A nice walk would be to start at 59th Street (Central Park, Plaza Hotel, Apple Store, FAO Schwarz) and stroll down 5th Avenue, ending at 42nd Street at the main branch of the New York Public Library…
This is an classic NYC institution that goes wild at Xmas…
Very beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
What a feast to the eyes over this festive season! Thank you. Wishing you a joyous and successful 2007.
Magic!
That is beautiful!
I understand the difficulties in taking photos. I was in the Paul Smith store in Soho over christmas and wanted to take a picture of a stuffed toy style moose head handing on the wall. My polite request was greated with absolute horror from the staff!
