Restoration Hardware, Miami

Restoration Hardware is another one of those brands that we always make a beeline for in New York whenever we visit, so to find this brand here in Miami is a particular treat.  The aesthetic of the products in their cool minimal tones is quite something to experience.  Who here is buying this stuff we don't know although as with West Elm is just impossible to buy these products via their website as they don't ship to the UK.  Grrrrr.  In the meantime we will just have to see if there is anything suitcase sized which we can purchase.

Missoni, Miami

We always look at the London store for this brand and slightly sigh as we pass it as they never seem to do anything interesting in their window spaces.  Here in Miami (this store is also much, much bigger that the one in London) they have, even during the Sale period at least made an effort with their Graffiti spray cans, bust prop and stacked tropical graphic.  Great to see that not all stores for this brand are the same too.

West Elm, Miami

Homeware is something that the US always do so amazingly well and wherever we travel in this vast country we always like to check out these kinds of stores in search of products we can never find elsewhere.  Situated in the Uber cool Design District here in Miami this is huge store offers amazing and beautifully crafted furniture and accessories which sadly are not available in the UK or the Dubai stores where we usually frequent. Do stock up here if you visit and send back to your own country yourself as they don't ship outside of the U.S.

Scotch & Soda, Miami

Its not often we find retailers being creative with the entrances to their stores and this style of Scotch and Soda store is completely new to us.  With their tensile structured space and amazing interior fixtures this is one to go and look at if you can.

Anthropologie, Miami

If there is one brand where we like to get a creative 'fix' it has to be Anthropologie.  With their hand made props and theme  which threads around the world their latest offering with an under-the-sea influence is a pleasure to experience.  Its desperately hot here in Miami so shopping malls are a welcomed sanctuary from the weather.  We will keep you informed of additional finds as we travel around this incredible city.

Marc Jacobs, London

We've slightly exhausted whats happening here in London at the moment although hopefully retailers will snap out of Sale very soon so that we can extend the types of brands we tend to look at (we usually include a lot of luxury brands as they are the ones who are usually doing something).  In the meantime here's some images from the Marc Jacobs store along Mount street. Not very exciting we know although this is what is happening.  We're on our way to Miami to check out the retailers there and will post what we find from tomorrow.

Moynat, London

We have included this brand on a few occasions although not many as they seem to only change their windows about once a year (remember the race track that was in here?).  Their Paris store of course seems to receive all of the love and attention from a visual perspective although this scheme naturally, even in its simplicity is beautifully crafted as one would expect from this fantastic brand.

Creed Boutique, London

Its not often we see real flowers in a window scheme but here at Creed Boutique there is quite a spectacular installation using beautiful White flowers in a repetition, gravitational. spherical dynamic which is punctuated with some of their beautifully packaged fragrances.  If you are not familiar with this brand, it dates back to 1760 and they sell fantastic fragrances, candles and bath and body care products.  If there was one place where you could indulge yourself then it clearly has to be this one.

Christopher Kane, London

We're coming across a lot of window schemes which include work from various Artists (we guess) and while we don't include this brand very often this scheme is rather a corker when the product is so critical.  We're trying to decide whether including work from Artists (as in creating a Gallery-style installation) is an easy option although actually for any retailer out there who is struggling with ideas or simply can't afford to do very much this is a great idea which both supports the brands window schemes and the Artist themselves.  We should try and be a bit more positive about these things.

Gina, London

We've steered ourselves towards Mount street this week in the hope of finding some more gems in this otherwise rarely trodden (by us at least) part of London's West End.  There are some amazingly luxurious brands on this street if you aren't familiar with it and thankfully we came across Gina who nearly always make such an effort in their relatively small window spaces.  With a kind of artists studio-style installation complete with picture frames, canvases, palette and paint covered mannequin legs this scheme is very interesting.

Burberry, London

We can't decide if the props here are references to natural forms or whether they are simply covered objects, who knows?  Of course their product is staggeringly good although we just don't know what more we can say about these canvas forms other than simply include them here to show you what is happening on the high street at the moment.

Selfridges, London

This staggering brand have done it again.  Their current installation is called 'Music Matters, The transformative power of music. Amplified.'  And what an impressive campaign this is too which runs until October this year.  Recognising that so many music venues have closed or are nearly at the end of their life, Selfridges are 'reasserting the importance of collective experiences in sound with a series of one-of-a-kind performances held in unexpected venues'.  Check out their website for more details or if you can, just go and indulge in this amazing window scheme.

Isabel Marant, London

We can always count on this brand to install some kind of Art installation and this one for their AW17 collection is called United Pipople.  How do we know this you may ask?  Well, they are one of the few brands that explain what they are doing on their website.  Described as "A bevy of masks to perform the human comedy, a gallery of human and joyous portraits".  Their site further suggests that "There is an urgent need to put a smile on people's faces".  Well they aren't wrong there.
