Anthropologie, New York

This brand is always a firm favourite of ours and of course a visit to their Rockefeller center store is always on our agenda when we are in NYC.  We dont know what the global directive is for the schemes across this brand but as always each store interprets this wonderfully creatively.  We were sad not to be able their store further downtown in Soho so this was the only store we've come across to date on our visit.

Agent Provocateur, New York

This brand are no strangers to producing provocative schemes although we did feel, given the current climate that perhaps this was not the best choice to install right now?  Of course, these things are planned so well in advance that no-one could have guessed that something which was perhaps meant to be sexy and fun is rather lacking in taste.  That said perhaps they were trying to generate their own shocking headlines (we haven't actually seen any regarding this scheme) but things can ever so easily backfire so we guess they will may need to be prepared to defend it should the moment come.  Watch this space we guess.

Bergdorf Goodman, New York

You really cant beat an amazing Bergdorf Goodman window scheme.  The team here absolutely get things right and of course in typical theatrical style they have yet again produced the most stunning scheme at their 5th Avenue store.  Taking inspiration from the various cultural institutions across New York the windows here are blinding.  This week we are going to show you some of the amazing installations from this rocking city stateside.

Tiffany, London

Just look at these sparkling scenes at Tiffany right now.  We happened to be passing while they were installing this scheme so its appearing here slightly later than we had planned although they are so worth waiting for.  What is always so amazing with these windows is not only are they so beautifully produced (and in miniature too..!) but that they always have such an impact for such a tiny product.

Selfridges, London

We were so excited to see what Selfridges would do this year and of course this monolithic brand never disappoints.  We adore the humour in their schemes (just look at Sprout man..!) and with their slightly nostalgic scheme (which appears to us at least as carnival meets revolution) its no wonder that this brand are such a force on the high street.  The details here are just incredible.

Reserved, London

We've been following this brand from a distance for a while now since they opened their brand new store along Oxford street to see what they would do.  This Polish clothing brand rocked onto our high street here in the centre of it all with an an amazing launch and now this, their first UK Christmas scheme in the site of the former BHS.  As for the brand itself, think H&M meets Zara.

Ralph Lauren, London

There is a wonderful luxurious house style to the schemes at Ralph Lauren (at least here in London) and they often, as we have shown throughout 2017,  include references to interiors (albeit the kind of places many of us will never live in, however thats aspiration for you).  This scheme is also quite a shift from using their usual glamorous mannequins with a much softer application and the inclusion of these 'human' teddy bears.  A wonderfully detailed scheme this is too.

If you dont know the history of this store then do do a quick search via the internet as it really is fascinating.  KaDeWe which means Kaufhaus Des Westens or Department store of the West is enormous and the second largest department store in Europe (after Harrods).  This season the brand have produced this incredible installation which continues the adventures from last Christmas of the KaDeWe 'wichtels' (or Santa's little helpers) produced in conjunction with the team at www.barthelmess.com/en  This is certainly an amazing immersive scheme for their European and international market.

Liberty, London

Views over the roof tops is the seasonal offering from Liberty right now.  This store has always had the cache of being a cool place to be (besides being in such an iconic and desirable place).  Great props beautifully executed too with the products themselves being slightly less of a focus.  We are always amazed at their innovation and consistency of delivery.

Vivienne Westwood, London

There's nothing like this time of year in London as it always looks quite magical with the lights of Regent street, Oxford street and Bond street and some of the amazing windows out there right now.  As always the team at Vivienne Westwood have delivered another incredible scheme too in conjunction with Make it London, Starscape, Onward Display and Ecotricity with their Biblical schemes complete with Supernova and constellation backdrops.  Do swing by these stores along Conduit street if you can as they really need to be seen and experienced in the 'flesh'.

Karl Lagerfeld, London

With a shimmering background punctuated with these bright Yellow focal points and the strapline Karl Holidays in neon, this brand have continually delivered some great schemes this year.  Oddly we haven yet been inside of this space to have a scout around although we tend to be out and about during the late night hours when all is quiet.  This is another brand on our list to watch for 2018.
