Who Wore What To Bergdorf's?

     Good morning!  I am still carrying on with the Bergdorf theme.  I had dreams about the event and needed to inform you all a little bit more.  It was too fabulous to just blog about once!  Now that we know all about why Bergdorf Goodman's had a smashing bash let's see who all attended it.  The Plaza hotel was crawling with designers, stylists, models, bloggers and the elite.  Enough of me talking, let's just admire!

Carolyn Murphy arrived at the party in a golden yellow J Mendel Spring 2013 gown with bright lips and shoe accents.
Coco Rocha came with one of her favorite men, Zac Posen.  She is wearing the designer's fabulous blood red mermaid strapless gown.
Jason Wu's date, Erin Heatherton showed off her legs and her dates talent wearing this sexy gown.
Marchesa's co-founder Georgina Chapman made a feathery entrance in one of her own dazzling creations.
Karolina Kurkova wearing a printed Roberto Cavalli suit and some hot silver Christian Louboutin pumps.

Saving the best for last.  The Queen, Anna Wintour, crashed the party in this classic Christian Dior dress.
   
     "What an interesting group of people!" I say to myself as I scroll through the red carpet album.  But shoved together in the fully decorated Plaza they make for a true reflection of the upscale Bergdorf Goodman's array of chichi fashion.  Fabulous!

Party on!

Ciao,

Bergdorf Turns One Hundred & Eleven!

     Last night at the Plaza Hotel things got a little wild as many celebrated the 111th Anniversary of the fabulous, Bergdorf Goodman.  This was the first time since 1951 that Bergdorf's has decided to mark and celebrate it's birthday.  They must have all been in desperate need to get their party on, huh?  This was a year of firsts for Bergdorf's.  Over 100 designers designed pieces to make up an exclusive anniversary collection, a documentary film was created and there was a book constructed in its honor.      There is only one Bergdorf Goodman in the world and it just so happens to be the summit of style, inspiration and service since 1901.
     As I was meandering about the city I came to the corner of 5th & 58th and there it was.  The shining beautiful stone structured building wrapped in an oversized lavender ribbon, with iconic vintage Bergdorf silhouette's printed all over it, that surrounded the entire building.  We are all aware that Bergdorf's is known for it's window displays.  If you didn't know that, now you do and make sure you don't forget it!  The current theme was recently unveiled and is sporting an 111th Anniversary theme.  These windows are portraying the history of Bergdorf's, the history of fashion, a representation of the building and more secrets and surprises.  The celebration is a continuous theme throughout the store as well.  The attention to detail that you see in these windows is magnifying.  If you are nearby it is worth checking out!  But for now I have posted them so you can use your imagination and picture the 3D version of these eccentric art creations.






     These windows kind of portray that "if you wear these articles of clothing you can run the world" type thing.  I mean common, there is a little bit of everything going on here.  Embracing of our societies current printed fabric obsession, the culmination of every air transportation craft known to man hovering over what looks like three fashion forward giants strutting down 5th Ave., renderings of the original Bergdorf's and well everything else that is packed into these chaotically fabulous windows.  Call me crazy, but I would love to be one of those mannequins looking out at the world to see the reactions and count the number of finger prints that cumulate on the windows as they stare in awe.  

One city, one store, one experience!
