Saks Fifth Avenue
NEW YORK, NY
November 24, 2015
I made the trek over to Saks Fifth Avenue well after hours (2AM) to check out, “The Winter Palace”, the department store's opulence vs. everything approach to the season.
I was trying to explain to Husband-- who would not get out of the car (and only tagged along because “you're crazy"/security) the gist of what’s happening here:
Me: "Remember in Boomerang, when Eddie Murphy was lovesick and he turned over the perfume campaign to the art director and then Strange' had a perfume baby?"
Him: “WHAT?”
Me: “So, yeah. That's like what happened with Saks window. Someone gave up and let the biggest Beyoncé fan ever run wild with a huge budget, and gave one stipulation: all white everything. This is the result."
The Saks window is like one gigantic Beyoncé video. Or like a drag ball. Same thing. When I was taking pics, I kept thinking, "for the GAWDS, Hunty. Old and new."
“The Winter Palace” will be on display thru December.
