Bergdorf Goodman's 111th Anniversary Season of Celebration: The Windows, Interior & Store Wrapping

Bergdorf Goodman is celebrating its 111th Anniversary; One store, one city, one experience. This is the first time Bergdorf Goodman has marked its birthday since 1951 and it will be a season of celebration including an exclusive anniversary collection by more than 100 designers, a documentary film and a book. There is only one Bergdorf Goodman in the world: The pinnacle of style, service, and inspiration, since 1901.

An oversized lavender ribbon, with iconic vintage silhouette packaging, is wrapping the entire building of Fifth Avenue throughout the season.

The legendary Fifth Avenue windows have been unveiled with the theme "111 Years of Extraordinary.”

Window highlights include: 
     -Bergdorf Goodman’s history through archival photographs, illustrations and memorabilia offering a mixed-media narration of Bergdorf’s since it opened as a dress atelier in 1901. 
     -A unique paper sculpture installation of twelve costumes represent a history of fashion since 1901 by New York artists Mark Gagnon and Samantha Smith. 
     -A fanciful lavender version of “5th and 58th,” Bergdorf's famous New York City corner.

Visit 5th/58th, the Bergdorf Goodman blog for an audio tour, and hear David Hoey, BG’s visual director, give a behind-the-scenes tour of the windows.
