More of Bergdorf Goodman's homage to Tony Duquette today, because who could possibly show all 5 windows in 1 post? Duquette is the best match for Bergdorf's Christmas windows with his sense of wonder and fantasy. Plus Duquette's philosophy that if some is good, more is better makes a perfect fit.
An obsessive attention to detail - no surfaces are left unembellished.Here a chanteuse sings in the "Light" window.
All the windows have a natural element theme:
Light - Air - Water - Fire - Earth
And monkeys are EVERYWHERE! Here in top hat and tails...
Here a picture from Duquette's house in LA, "Dawnridge".
The "Air" window inspired as much of Duquette's decorations were, by the East.
With Duquette it's hard to know what to look at first.
His love for highly layered surfaces were inspired by global cultures and incorporated spectacular antiques. The multi-faux finishes reflect Duquette's love of exotic over-the-top decorating.
Monkeys in gold-encrusted outfits...
Duquette's bedroom at "Dawnridge" surely inspired the Bergdorf's windows...
A studious monkey from the "Water" window...
Even more monkeys...
The new Tony Duquette book by Wendy Goodman and Hutton Wilkinson - the source of all this inspiration and excitement.
Have a GREAT NEW YEAR'S EVE ALL!
