Here's where you can see the best
NYC holiday windows this year
BY BROOKE THOMPSON AND
MIA SALAS
The year 2020 may have brought
many changes, but the traditional
unveiling of NYC holiday
windows will still be here.
In 2019, we saw gorgeous, holiday
window displays of whimsy, like
Saks’s take on Frozen 2; of the fantastical,
such as Bloomingdale’s Out of
this World display; of snowy, holiday
villages as seen in the American Girl
display, and even of edible delights
shown in Bergdorf Goodman’s unique
candy display.
This year, many companies, like
Bloomingdale’s, Saks, and Macy’s,
will be holding virtual window unveiling
events. Bloomingdale’s, for
example, live-streamed their holiday
window’s unveiling on Nov. 23 but
required a donation (of any amount)
to watch the event. All proceeds will
go to the charity organization Child
Mind Institute.
Here is a recap of last year’s best
NYC holiday windows from 2019.
Best NYC Holiday Windows in
2019
Bloomingdale’s – Upper
East Side
We love Bloomingdale’s holiday
windows, because not only do they tell
a story through art, but they’re often
interactive. In 2019, Bloomingdales
traveled into space in celebration of
the 50th anniversary of the moon
landing. This was an artistic and stylish
take on exploring space. 1000 3rd
Avenue, New York, NY 10022
Saks Fifth Avenue –
Midtown
The window display at Saks is one of
the best for families because Saks often
chooses a popular children’s book as a
theme and includes kid-friendly animations.
Saks and Disney came together
last year to celebrate Frozen II in their
holiday window display. 611 5th Avenue,
New York, NY 10022
Macy’s: Herald Square –
Midtown
Families followed the story of
Santa Girl, who watches the Macy’s
Thanksgiving Day Parade from her
bedroom window and wishes that she
were Santa Claus. Little ones were
able to press Santa Girl’s dog’s, Willow,
nose, and she scratched her ears.
Kids also played with a video game
where you could use a steering wheel
to drive on a road full of presents
and take photos using a mechanical
kaleidoscope. Santa was larger than
life last year, with a 15-foot-tall Santa
Claus on the marquee on top of the
Broadway entrance, for a total of 18
feet high. 151 West 34th Street, New
York, NY 10001
David Yurman – Lenox Hill
We’re big fans of David Yurman
holiday windows, because they raise
awareness for Polar Bears International,
a non-profit that works to conserve
polar bears and their environment.
David Yurman is known for its
simple, yet elegant and heart-warming
displays of winter. Last year’s holiday
window, they continued to raise Polar
Bear awareness and protect their delicate
habitats. 712 Madison Avenue,
New York, NY 10065
Louis Vuitton – Midtown
Louis Vuitton’s holiday window
theme consisted of bright colors and
the brand’s monogram logo that scales
the facade of the building. 1 East 57th
Street, New York, NY 10022
Shine On – Hudson Yards
This dramatic indoor-outdoor
artistic light and music installation
was coupled with seasonal events
and experiences perfect for the
whole family. The Lyra light display
was inspired by the similarly
named constellation, representing
the enchanted string instrument of
Greek mythology. The display was
a series of star-shaped sculptures
made of LED lights, which created
a visual spectacle synchronized to
classic holiday music. Between 10th
and 12th Avenues from West 30th to
34th Street, New York, NY 10001
American Girl –
Midtown
We loved this winter wonderland!
American Girl and Swarovski teamed
up to create a spectacular holiday
window that was shining all season
long. This holiday haven gleamed
with nearly 200 Swarovski crystal
strands and 130 pounds of Swarovski
crystal stardust. This little American
Girl winter village shined bright and
dazzled anyone who passed by. You
can’t go wrong with a holiday window
jam-packed with sparkling crystals!
75 Rockefeller Plaza, New York, NY
10019
In the craziness of 2020 and the
upcoming holiday season, take some
time to relax and enjoy the wondrous
sights of the NYC holiday windows.
They will certainly put you in the
holiday spirit and possibly even give
you ideas on holiday gifts for your
loved ones.
