NYC: Bergdorf Goodman's 2009 Holiday Windows - A Compendium of Curiosities - Chapter 16: Reflected Reveries and Meticulous Metronomes
The 2009 Holiday Windows at Bergdorf Goodman, designed by David Hoey and his team, depict "A Compendium of Curiosities." They feature references to M.C. Escher and Lewis Carroll along with Victorian elements.
Bergdorf Goodman began in 1899 when Herman Bergdorf, an immigrant from Alsace, opened a tailor shop just above Union Square. Edwin Goodman, an employee of Bergdorf's, purchased the store then located in the "Ladies' Mile" in 1906. In 1914, Goodman became the first couturier to introduce ready-to-wear. The store moved to its present location at 5th Avenue and 58th Street in 1928, building its Art Deco store on the site of the William K. Vanderbilt mansion. The men's store was moved across the street to the old FAO Schwarz space at 745 Fifth Avenue in 1990.
