Mondial: Nautical



Mondial is an exceptional jewelry brand when it comes to window display aspect. Compared to other brands, even those legendary French or Italian one, Mondial window displays have large and spacious space like those of fashion brands. Last but not least, the VM team behind it always have ideas to create an interesting concept without ignore the main objection that is to high light the tiny winy size of the jewelry. This can be seen at the latest window creation that has a strong nautical concept. Ship stir wheels and rowing sticks become the main attention for each window. Each of those props acts as the point of display. Behind them are a white colored window and a panel with beautiful sea shell motifs. Pillows with sea creatures print and lamps trap in the fishnets add the cozy feeling reflected by this blue and white colored window display.

Chanel: Turning Japonism


Being different and exclusive among the other luxury brands, Chanel is doing a Japanese theme imagery both for its campaign images and also the window display concept. Wooden frames and doors with natural color screens and also floor covered with tatami is the main objects we can find. The other properties are modern looking and make you want to buy them. Last and the most important thing is the Spring/Summer 2013 collection that looks more vibrant and young at heart. The unique interpretation of the Chanel classic bag, the one with the round frame, is also put in the lap of the mannequins.

Sogo: Tourists on the beach


If only I have an awarding session for this blog, I certainly will give the best window display for this 2013 to Sogo Department Store window display at Plaza Senayan. The theme is Summer Fun and it is really a fun summer vacation on the beach. There are mannequins acting as tourists whether they are in family or just strong bound friend gangs. This display is so vivid and detail. The outfits and the accessories is always brilliant in the styling but the most important here is the prop. You can see the beach sands complete with its dirts: sea shells or soft drink cans, nets, or the chairs and surfing boards like you will always find. The beautiful white sand beach plus the bluest sky images in the background also make the windows look perfect. Wonderful job!

Gucci: Miss matching


Gucci Spring/Summer 2013 collection is perhaps the most colorful and brightest ever produced by this legendary Italian fashion house. Cobalt blue, azalea pink, yellow, and other bright colors are out everywhere in the collection. They are worn literary from head to toe, from the jewelries, outfits, shoes, handbags, and even the color of the shades. This styling concept is now transferred into the Gucci window display for Summer 2013. A pink mannequin is wearing a pink outfits and there is a pink colored snakeskin clutch in front of it. Next to the pinky is the blue mannequin that is also wearing a blue outfit with big floral motifs.

The Beauty Tailor: Gentleman


There are many shops being renovated or come and go at Plaza Indonesia. Among the newcomers, or perhaps newly renovated one, is The Beauty Tailor, a local tailor shop for gentleman's suits. The look of this tailor is very modern even I thought it is not a local. The window display is very nice and simple but strongly expressed the masculine feel. There is an old table with old sewing machine and big scissors upon it. Two men blazer, one is done and the other is still on the process, are guarding a black and white photo of a, again, scissor, one of the importance tool in the tailor world. Last but not least is the center of attention, a big image of Rio Dewanto, the handsome, gorgeous, young and talented Indonesian actor who apparently becomes the ambassador or perhaps the icon of this tailor.

Franck and Co.: Tropical garden part 2



Last April, I posted the Franck and Co. window display that features a tropical garden concept. Now, I am posting the other aspect of this beautifully executed display from the Plaza Indonesia boutique. The little window display near the entrance are fully with orchids in some colors, leaves or plants I cannot mention, and also the tiny little greenery that might be exist in a tropical weather garden or perhaps forest. Colorful lamps make this window look dark and magical and emphasize the luxurious diamond necklace on the torso mannequin. Amazing.
