H @ Bergdorf goodman, madison ave

Hi everyone, I returned recently from a trip to NY and was fortunate enough to visit both H's and the H in BG.

I took some pics of the window, and was wondering a few things:

Why is it an accent aigu instead of an accent grave?

and is this elephant from H? Because it's cute beyond words!

(and it has beaded eyes, I just managed to capture the worst possible angle...)
Also, if it is H, any info on price? I went into BG and was distracted by the Bbags....

Thanks!

Great pics! Looks like the window dresser got it backwards when they set up the graphics in the window.....Did you get anything??

Thanks ggirl!

I think your'e right about the window dresser, but when I went inside to look at the watches they were all backwards, too! maybe they looked to the window display for reference.

Now there's a funny story about this trip... Surprisingly, madison didn't have a lot of the things in the colors I was looking for, so I guess I'll ahve to keep looking! I did manage to pick up a few things, but I had them mailed home (and still waiting....

) but I did bring home with me a ulysse in orange! =)

How strange they buggered up the accent grave! That's something I would have noticed too.

Love the Ulysse, I have the same and adore it!

Oh ok, seemed weird just to post that

FrankieP · Sep 6th, 2008, 10:52 AM

Lol.. no, as Matt noticed the accent grave is mistakenly replaced by accent aigu on the second E. Someone did a boo-boo!

mooks · Sep 6th, 2008, 10:57 AM

That's a pretty big boo-boo....I mean they could have checked it against the bottom of one of the plates!!

Hahhahaahaa there'd have been a thousand instances of 'Hermès' right in front of the signwriter there in store..!
