Ralph Lauren, London

Its been a while (well probably just a few weeks) since we looked at this brand and wow, this is a completely new direction.  Normally we see impossibly beautiful interior spaces from unknown glamorous places, however their latest offer is a complete departure and not really the kind of scheme we would expect to see here.  We do however love the huge prints across the various layers which form the backdrop to the product here.

Tods, London

And they're back.  We were a little concerned recently that the brand had gone all mid-range on us with their Graphics but here we have an impressive totem pole-style installation of some very interesting objects.  We don't know what the narrative is here and it doesn't really matter, we just want to see wonderful things in beautiful windows.  Great job guys.

Max Mara, London

It looks like days out and holidays must just be around the corner.  We love the simplicity of this scheme and great to see how they have stripped back the narrative and it still all makes sense.  No easy task for sure. And, the simpler the scheme, the harder it can be to make it look so good as you have no where to hide.  Anyway, wonderful work but time to rotate those mannequins we reckon.

Givenchy, London

We're not 100% confident with the latest scheme at this brand.  On the one hand we have the land-of-the-giants sized (well it looks like a bottle of Bleach to be honest) plastique bottle and then a Male mannequin with one boot off and a female mannequin so high up the window and such a short skirt that you can see her changing her mind, if you get our drift.  This isn't an overly ambitious or detailed scheme and dressing a mannequin is not the toughest job in the world although this is not quite what we expected from this brand.

Mulberry, London

Wow, this brand is on fire right now.  The schemes are changing faster than we can capture them and we love it.  The team here appear to be taking quite an abstract approach to their schemes although this one is certainly a product-led one based on their Softie collection.  Large padded installations in delicious colours fill their open backed windows here at their store along Bond street right now.

Moncler, London

Surprisingly, this was actually quite a difficult scheme to capture as so many passersby stop and are mesmerised by the perpetual space and the kaleidoscopic imagery of the window below.  Glowing across Bond street right now is this brand.  Everything suddenly seems ok again here after two very long years of disruption and thank goodness we have plenty more schemes to share with you again.

Tods, London

This is certainly not the finest scheme we have seen from this brand although anything visual right now is appreciated.  Large format graphics always make our eyes smart and actually something we don't see often from luxury brands.  To us at least images of the product behind the product itself (or worse still, images of product when it hasn't actually arrived in store) just screams mid-range or lower and probably always best avoided.

Chanel, London

This is a very simple scheme for this brand and perhaps given the time of year, it's not beneficial to have anything more lavish?  We weren't quite sure what to make of this installation other than it appears to have structures which remind us of mattresses as a backdrop (or is that just us?).  Other than that there isn't a lot more to mention unfortunately.

Rimowa, London

Well this is a much needed injection of colour out there on the high street.  We're guessing that the brand have launched a new coloured luggage range and here it is.  Surrounded with large cut-outs of flora and other indiscernible plant life also in a range of colours completes the scheme in this open backed window space.

John Lewis, London

Hit snooze or seize the day?  Hit snooze of course we're not barbarians, jeez.  Joking aside, following on from the Well being scheme at Selfridges which we posted on Thursday, here we have another at this brand.  This is of course an important subject to promote and to be honest something we are all probably in need of right now.

Selfridges, London

There is a big movement happening out there right now towards highlighting the theme of well being.  Several brands have picked up on this across the high street with varying levels of creativity.  At the pinnacle of course is this brand and what a huge and much needed injection of creativity this is too.  Promoting their latest offer encouraging us to 'Discover our Superself' with a range of very colourful or purely textured installations complete with QR codes.  Do check this scheme out if you can particularly at night time when it glows wonderfully.  The full run of this scheme are on both our Insta and Facebook pages - link below.

Longchamp, London

There's a strange vibe about town at the moment as it appears that no-one is quite sure whether to launch Spring / Summer yet and everyone is slightly in limbo.  While a lot of brands are still showing Winter schemes there are a few who have braced the new season already with an onwards and upwards approach and showing their Spring collections.  Here at this brand we are guessing that there is a nod to holiday's to come complete with hints of Spanish villa (we're teasing of course) and that long awaited (at least here in London) warm weather break.
