Fab Decor: Henri Bendel
Henri Bendel is a girly girl’s shopping fantasy come true. Just its recognizable brown and white stripe logo and shopping bag make my heart pump with joy. They have the most beautiful collections of: accessories (see their hat collection below), artful makeup displays and in-house branded products ever. All they need is a fabulous shoe collection to match. 
I’m one of those weird shoppers that really gets into the whole experience. I browse the products, yes but I also take in all the displays, the signs, the graphics, the packaging and window fronts. I get inspired by it all and am delighted by all the creativity surrounding me. Bendel’s has some of my favorite displays and graphics. Thanks to their famed illustrator, Izak Zenou their store’s interior and general branding are both distinctive and fabulous. Here’s a look into what I saw at Bendel’s this week.
They make Bendel luggage now!
I like this studded red frame!
This lady found the clear totes so fascinating that she wouldn’t move out of the way and I had no patience for her so here’s the beautiful display… and her backside.
Aren’t these the most precious handmade fashion dolls, ever?
These perfume tester papers were so pretty I had to take one of each home! I think I’ll use them for bookmarks. How would you use them?
I wish I could have taken more pictures but Bendel’s big security guards kept me from taking as many as I wanted 🙁
More about my favorite fashion illustrators (including Izak) later…
