Photo by Anne Corrons
Paris gets the ball rolling way before us when it comes to Xmas windows.These shots are all by Anne Corrons of Mes Vitrines NYC.
MERCI ANNE for inspiring today's PB post on Galeries Lafayette Noel 2009.
The theme this year is based on teddy bears. This bear is flinging herself into a champagne bucket. Not a bad idea non?
Really it's the ginger bear that captured their imagination.
Anne got to interview the window's designer - Jean-Claude Dehix
Why is the hero Ginger?
This seemed obvious. Gingerbread (pain d'epice) is reminiscent of the traditions of Christmas, so we made gingerbread a star in every shop window and inside the store.
(I spotted this ginger bear in red down in front...)
This rockin' teddy bear is designed by Zadig et Voltaire...
And if this bear is not an homage...
To MJ (note black hat, wearing red, and dark glasses)
Well I'll eat my Trilby hat...
Oh why didn't I buy one of these in Paris?
This photo is c/o Do It In Paris...
In fact Paris is crazy for MJ and certainment the couture biz...
Balmain Paris designer Christophe Decarnin showed a slew of jackets influenced by MJ's military style in the Spring '09 collection.
And ironically Michael Jackson wears a ton of these Balmain jackets in This Is It, an inspiring look at the inner workings of an artist par excellance IMHO.
I saw a lot of MJ whilst in Paris...
This T-shirt homage was right by my apartment...
I'm a new fan but a 24/7 one - I love his music and dancing.

This is not Galeries Lafayette but Printemps in all their Xmas glory. Enjoy

BONJOUR PAIN D'EPICE!
