Christmas shop windows


The Bull and the China. 

Window dressing has an important role in enticing the shoppers inside the store. Here are a couple of  examples of the Central London Christmas windows this year.




Fortnum and Mason has gone for the theme of togetherness, 'Together we are Merrier' Each window tells the story of an unlikely pairing who have put aside their differences for the season of Christmas. The stories are told through rhymes printed on the windows and the characters.
                                               

The Early Bird and the Night Owl

The Chef and the Lobster


The Wolf and the Sheep

The Turkey and the Butcher


The Polar Bear and the Penguin

The tree and the Woodcutter



Meanwhile over at Liberty's the windows have been inspired by the Royal Ballet's production of The Nutcracker

    Those decorations must cost a fortune, they put lot of effort into them

    Those first pictures are very original to express a message to think over. The Liberty windows are also very nice to watch. It is a joy to do some windowshopping these days!

    I love the top ones. I wish I could have seen them myself, but I was too busy shopping! I wonder what the ones in Harrods look like though.
