We don’t recommend lighting displays directly from the top, as this can lead to unattractive, harsh shadows. Instead, consider lighting displays from the sides and front. This technique will bring out the 3D quality of the display. Plus, you can really have some fun when you have light coming at it from different angles. 8. Take a final look at your retail window display The retailer’s window displays are most notable for their simplicity. Unlike Bergdorf Goodman, whose windows are a targeted celebration of decadence, Tiffany’s creative is often quite minimal. Philadelphia-based sustainable fashion brand Lobo Mau could teach a master class on how to ensure passersby don’t just browse window displays, but shop them. Source

Created on a modest budget, TYPE’s unique window displays consistently lead to an increase in foot traffic. There’s no couture or Swarovski crystals, but by honing in on a specific theme, TYPE Books attracts the attention of both new and existing customers. Themes have included under the sea, typography, and an entire window dedicated to a single children’s book. Each theme is the brainchild of “craftician” Kalpna Patel, who creates much of her work using simply paper and glue. It’s a well known fact that grocery stores display cereals for kids on lower shelves and cereals for adults on higher shelves. Why? Because this is where these customers’ eyelines land, and therefore, where their attention will be.So, if you’re looking for further activities to support you in teaching Remembrance Day, then you might like to give your pupils the opportunity to get creative with our Simple Split Pin Remembrance Day Poppyactivity. You could also take the opportunity to visit your local war memorial to help your class show their appreciation for our armed forces. Laura Clouting: “In May 1915, during a break from tending to wounded and dying soldiers, he wrote a new poem and it's a poem commonly known as ‘In Flanders Fields’, and it's has its setting as a cemetery and it's written as if it was it were being spoken by dead soldiers and this poem did become popular during the war, it was published in hugely popular magazines, it helped to, I suppose, connect the symbolism of death during the war with the poppy and McCrae himself did not actually survive the war, but it was really after the war that the poppy became the iconic symbol of Remembrance that it is today.” The symbol of the poppy is more popular and well established than it's ever been, but for some people the poppy is seen as a contentious symbol.

Change your displays often to signal to customers who pass by regularly that it’s time for them to stop in again. Depending on the design of your store window display, you may need other materials to complete your project. However, these tools will keep the ball rolling and can serve as a skeletal shopping list to start your display design. 2. Start with a story based on a themeKnown for its elaborate window displays, Saks’ collaboration with French design collective Vetements did a complete about-turn by featuring nothing but a pile of old clothes. Source You would never see fast fashion in a Bergdorf window. It’s not their customer,” says Mujica. “No one has done anything like this before or since. It took everyone’s breath away.” What you should steal Anna Guerin was christened ‘the poppy lady from France’, and by 1920 her work had resulted in the American Legion and the Major Veterans Association in the USA adopting the poppy as a symbol of Remembrance. After this success, Guerin then turned her attention to Britain. It helps to begin with a theme, then use your storytelling prowess to turn it into something more sophisticated.
