2. Bloomingdale’s

Bloomingdale’s unveiled its color block windows with a special virtual event benefiting the Child Mind Institute, a charity Bloomingdale’s has partnered with for holiday campaigns since 2009. Each window display expresses a sentiment of Bloomingdale’s “Give Happy.” Each of the five monochromatic scenes when viewed together along the Lexington Avenue facade creates a color block rainbow. An entry window incorporates all of the separate colors into one multi-hued neon display.

All of the colorful scenes are sparkly, flashy, and bright with tons of glitter and mirrored side walls which create an infinity effect. In the red “Give Love”  window, giant hearts are surrounded by a sea of striped candy canes. In the green “Give Snuggles” window, a mannequin strikes a pose surrounded by a wreath made of fluffy teddy bears, and in the yellow “Give a Smile” window, a mannequin sits in a spinning disco ball smiley face created by local New York City artist, Allison Eden. An extra special feature of this year’s windows is that you can smell them too! Pine, peppermint and other scents are piped out to the street for a multi-sensory experience.
