I WALKED DOWN GREENE ST. TODAY,
WOOSTER ST., PRINCE ST., SPRING ST., AND MERCER ST.
I WAS CURIOUS TO SEE IF ANYONE
(LIKE SAINT LAURENT PARIS, APC, CÉLINE, CHLOÉ)
HAD DONE THEIR WINDOWS FOR FASHION WEEK.
BEHIND THE SCENES: RETAIL WORKERS WERE RE-ARRANGING DISPLAYS
IN-STORE, DECIDING WHICH BAG SHOULD GO WHERE.
EVERYONE WAS AT LINCOLN CENTER FOR THE SHOWS,
IT WAS LIKE THE CALM BEFORE THE STORM.
BUT THE WINDOWS WERE EMPTY.
MAYBE IT'S A NEW YORK THING
(OR LAZY?)
BUT I LOVE A GOOD DISPLAY WINDOW.
MAYBE IN NEW YORK IT'S MORE OF A
"I KNOW I'M GOING TO BUY THIS
BECAUSE I SPENT 1 HOUR GETTING HERE
AND OH GOD I NEED COFFEE"
MENTALITY.
I DON'T LIKE IT. I LONG FOR WINDOWS LIKE THIS ONE,
EMILIO PUCCI (FLORENCE)
I TOOK THIS DURING PITTI UOMO/PITTI IMMAGINE 2013.
IN EUROPE, THERE IS AN ART TO THE DISPLAY WINDOW.
IN NEW YORK...? I DON'T KNOW.
BUT I'M NEW TO THE CITY.
... SHOULD I BE LOOKING ELSEWHERE?
