Poshhoney, thanks for posting! Always love the window displays at FSH.

Hermes San Francisco (sorry for the reflections...couldn't avoid it despite several attempts to shoot at different angles):

Thanks for sharing your photos with us, kaoru. So fun to see!

What is this Kelly in the window? Is it a croc Kelly? The reflection on the glass makes it hard to see what it is. Thank you.

Hmm, it's not croc for sure, my impression was it's box calf leather. I was hoping to see some Birkins or Kellys in exotics but none were out for display.

Another note on today's trip: Surprisingly I didn't see too many people in the store during lunch time, the financial crisis must really be coming into play for their sales since this district in SF is part of the financial district .

Thank you, kaoru.

Not surprising if the district is empty. Your DJIA Index closed more than 400 points down. We in Asia are in for the after shocks when our markets open. We will be in the red red red ... sigh.

You're welcome

Yeah, the stocks are very bad right now, and the government just changed their mind and decided not to buy soured bank assets. Looks like the luxury industry will need to brace for worsening sales this Christmas.

I have confidence in Hermes, though, I think they will pull through this economy. After all, they survived a near-bankruptcy experience during the Great Depression.

That Kelly in the window would cause me to stumble in a big way.

Okay, crummy photos from my phone...Manhasset about a month ago:

I thought the Sydney windows were too cute not to share . Almost impossible to avoid reflections off the window! The window dresser is so clever! The bag in the house is a black Jypsiere.
I forgot to ask what could possibly be in the little round box in the shopping trolley - maybe the top of a twilly box?

What color is that?

Prussian blue (bleu de prusse), I think.

and oh, bags to die for, those are really cute dolls. very creative window display.

Next batch. Excuse my friend's fingers in the photo - she think's she's still a teenager . And me being a Trekkie noticed the spaceship is the Enterprise (the original). Ken, Barbie, trains with Clic Hs, twillies - what else could a girl want!

Last batch. I never realised how many windows the Sydney store has until I started taking photos. There were two other doll displays near the door but I couldn't quite take photos with the doorman being there!
