Bergdorf Goodman's Creepy Holiday Windows

As far as holiday window displays have gone this year, Bergdorf Goodman may take the Christmas cake for their design. Sure, it'll frighten children, and possibly even adults, but the holidays can be a scary time. Bergdorf's is just keepin' it real, kids. Wally G explains that the display is titled Calendar Girls; as for the aesthetic "David Hoey and his window design team drew inspiration for the theme from the dioramas at the American Museum of Natural History. The 58th Street windows, as well as those of the men's department across the street, featured fanciful anthropomorphistic depictions of leisure-time activities."

Previously: Barney's, Lord & Taylor's and Macy's unveiled their window displays.

But Maaaaaa

There's a Wolf and two Polar Bears, how could I resist!

"No animals were harmed..." but they sure were offended.

are you serious? the windows are amazing. they make me want to have a magical fantasy holiday.

Polar bears are starving to the point of resorting to cannibalism and somebody thinks it's cute to put 'em in boxing gloves?

actually, the macy's windows are truly the creepy ones. Check them out here. Especially the little girl jabbing Santa in the neck.

They are not real animals in the Bergdorf Goodman Men's store windows!
