Follow UK Immigration and Life in the UK: Every year, the top department store located in the Knightsbridge area of London, UK—Harrods—stages an extravagant window display to attract shoppers from around the world. According to a report by the Daily Mail on November 6, with only 48 days left until Christmas 2013, Harrods unveiled the mystery of its annual Christmas windows, creating the "Harrods Express" that surrounds the store. This year's display is inspired by the classic British steam train, but this version has a more dreamy atmosphere.
This window design, named "Harrods Express," was created under the leadership of the store's image director Mark Briggs and window design head Sarah Southgate, with over 50 staff members dedicating more than 500 hours to its creation. The separated window sections resemble train carriages, showcasing the most popular items, accessories, or home products of the moment. Among them, the most expensive is a gown adorned with Swarovski crystals, valued at £80,000 (approximately 7.83 million RMB).
Under the dazzling lights, the "Harrods Express" shines brilliantly, resembling a fairy tale. In addition to the shopping windows, there is also a luxurious piano bar and dinner, where exquisite evening gowns designed by the designers, luxurious jewelry, and custom toys for children can be seen everywhere.
