What is this exquisite space described by Karl Lagerfeld and Christian Louboutin?
Bergdorf Goodman, a department store like a jewel box filled with dreams and aspirations. This 112-year-old institution, itself hailed as "modern art" and an "icon of the fashion world," continues to innovate and lead the global market.—.
This film delves into the inner workings and history of this renowned department store, which rose from a small neighborhood tailor to a symbol of contemporary culture.
Within it lies the "true face" of Bergdorf Goodman, unseen before, where the artistic aspects that create its unique worldview collide with the business of running a department store.
The film is directed by Matthew Miele, who has helmed numerous documentaries. Esteemed designers such as Giorgio Armani, Manolo Blahnik, Dolce & Gabbana, Marc Jacobs, Michael Kors, Karl Lagerfeld, and Christian Louboutin all speak to Bergdorf's allure.
The film also offers a rare glimpse inside the store after closing hours. It vividly captures the professionals who work there: the fashion director who safeguards the store and supports emerging designers' careers, the window display designers who elevate holiday displays to an art form, and the personal shoppers who curate unique styles for celebrities worldwide.
What unfolds beyond the beautifully adorned shelves? A must-see for fashionistas. The doors to the magical department store, which creates the dreams and aspirations of all women, are now open.
