Vitrines at Debenham's, Oxford Street, London, depicting backstage dressing rooms for runway shows during London Fashion Week.
Mannequins depicting local trend-setters Victoria and David Beckham.
A vitrine dedicated to A-listers on the front row at fashion shows, including Grace Coddington and Anna Wintour of Vogue magazine.
P.S. I'm juggling too many balls in the air this week, with four sets of friends here, plus work obligations. This is why you're seeing an abundance of photos (taken last week in London) and few words. Hope to address that imbalance soon.
It's interesting to see what the London Fashion Week windows look like. Thank you for showing us the pics. The windows during New York Fashion Week were really simple...just dresses in the window. Well, I think Bergdorf Goodman had a row of chairs in one window to represent the catwalks. Anyway, it's interesting to compare the windows in London & New York.

Your London photos are fantastic, Tara!
Wishing you all the best, as you juggle your busy schedule - whew - with guests on top of it all, I don't know how you do it. Thank you for continuing to share your lovely photos with us!
