-WEDNESDAY WINDOWS-

Just as Charles James was joining the ranks of fashion's forgotten few, a frenzy of famous faces flocked to the Metropolitan Museum (MET), to fête his honor at the newly named Anna Wintour Costume Institute's premiere exhibition. Both the MET's Monday afternoon press preview and the white tie evening affair was star-studded and very vogue. This week's windows at Bergdorf's pays tribute to the late designer, his contemporary counterparts and the Charles James: Beyond Fashion exhibition at the MET. Keep reading to see the windows and have a look back at previous exhibit coverage here.

LINDA FARROW + BOFFO

Linda Farrow + Neiheiser & Valle at the BOFFO space, Pier 54

Bright lights, sunglasses and lightweight gold beams complete an indoor mirrored beach--the handiwork of BOFFO's latest pairing of Linda Farrow and architects Neiheiser & Valle. Protesting the dark and snowy days of winter, the exquisite sunglass designer and innovative architects have created an artistic installation that tests the boundaries of minimalism and balance. Part artistic installation, part eyewear boutique, the pop up--inside a shipping container parked at Pier 54--showcases Farrow's current line as well as collaborations with Oscar de la Renta, Jeremy Scott, Alexander Wang and others. Take your pick from the vast selection, poised delicately on beams held in place by piles of loose gravel. Hurry by, as the temporary retail space will fold on Christmas eve.
