Harvey Nicks celebrates the 1950s, the era of Queen Elizabeth II’s coronation, with window displays that depict a yesteryear British high street.
“This window scheme been one of the most fun to conceptualise – it’s a striking contrast to the contemporary approach we normally take with our installations, but retains our distinctly tongue-in-cheek sense of humour!” said Janet Wardley, Harvey Nichols’ head of visual display.
