I love Soft Surroundings

One final holiday window post. Throughout this window, the holidays are emphasized through Christmas trees with the lights and bows, and the big comfy sweaters. The trees in each window add good proportion along with the height of the mannequins and props involved - specifically the chairs. The mood is set perfectly for a Christmas night with makes it one unit. They all flow together well. 

Chic-yesssssss

Chico's had executed these windows with style. The bottom one shows proportion with the different heights of the mannequins, blocks, ornaments, and wreath. For the top image, its shown with the same mannequins, blocks and ornaments but instead of the wreath its a sign. Black is emphasized in the top window with the darker sweaters, jeans, shoes, and tops. White is emphasized in the bottom window by the jackets, tops, and scarves. They are both balanced with the amount of mannequin with sweater weather being emphasized.

Here's the Secret....

THE DISPLAYS IN THE STORE MAKEUP FOR THE BORING WINDOWS! Victoria's Secret always uses signage in their windows and no mannequins. Walking past the store though, you see this. You can see it with the gates closed, you can't miss it. I think this "box tree" makes up for the boring windows. It catches your attention and makes you want to see it. Proportion is shown with the height of the boxes. It is balanced with the boxes spread out throughout the table. It is unified through the color of "love", pink & red.

OH Charolette!

As seen in my earlier posts, Apricot Lane & Maurice's had similar displays in their windows to Charolette Rouse. I feel as if this idea may have been taken, considering Maurice's is down the hall. They did a good job of utilizing their space. Proportion is shown with the mannequin on the ground, to the mannequin on the block, next the height of the pole holding the jeans and sweaters, to the tallest point - the sign. Sweaters/Cardigans are emphasized as the weather begins to chill. Rhythm is shown with the pop of coral on the sweater, sign, and jean.

I'll Love This

As mentioned before... I LOVE THE HOLIDAYS AND I DEFINITELY LOVE THIS! American Eagle has always been one of my favorite places to shop because of their product and the way items are merchandised. Every aspect of these windows has great use of the space. Proportion is shown with the height of the mannequins, the shape of the triangle in the two windows, the height of the signage, the mannequins, and the garland at the bottom. Each window is balanced with either a mannequin and the triangle, four mannequins and the big triangle, and two mannequins with signage. The emphasis is to get the consumer ready for winter! Sweaters, hats gloves, you name it.

Black Friday, White Sweaters & Gold Ornaments

White House Black Market. One of my favorite stores that I don't shop at because of the price. This window is so festive and I love it. The gold ad white ornaments along with the tree make the window pop. I know it's hard to see but there are four mannequins which balance the window out nicely. Proportion is showed through the height of the mannequins, the tree, the blocks below the ornaments, and where the signage is placed. Emphasized is white/cream because of the clothing, ornament colors and blocks.

Pottery Barn Gave Me Feels

I've ALWAYS loved Pottery Barn, I want to take their setups and put it in my house. I love these two windows in particular for Pottery Barn Kids because it reminds me of my childhood, the dollhouse in particular. Proportion is shown with the height of the garland, the chandelier and the dollhouse. These items balance out the window with the signage in the top right, so it looks nice a full. The holiday spirit is definitely the emphasis here.
