Around the world in 80 windows (or there about)

Creating window displays that really grab bored – and probably stressed – Christmas shoppers is a challenge that luxury stores face every year.

  This year Chanel has collaborated with Parisian department store Printemps to create a round-the-world theme for its windows.

  Parisians and those on a Paris city break will be able to admire what is entitled The Dreams of Far Away. Curated by Chanel creative supremo Karl Lagerfeld, it features 3D visual merchandising scenes inspired by 11 of the designer’s favourite global locations including London, Moscow, Los Angeles, New York and, of course, Paris.

  When in Paris is it better to experience the city of light through a Chanel window display rather than opt for the real thing? Sounds good to me.
