Christmas show windows again, again, again...


As each year since I started this blog, it’s time to have a look at the Christmas show windows, concentrating on the department stores the Printemps and the Galeries Lafayette.

If you wish you can look back on 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018.

… and there is of course the tree under the fantastic glass cupola of the Galeries Lafayette, different each year.

The flowers we can see in the tree can be recognised in a large part of the Galeries Lafayette show window decorations.


A few of the windows are just showing “things to buy”, of course beautifully presented.

This year you will find all kinds of animals in the Printemps windows…



… whereas at the Galeries Lafaytte there is a concentration on bees.

Wonderful displays. These were always one of my favorite things to spend time on at Christmas time in Paris. Thank you for the delightful photos. Not as good as being there in person but the next best thing.

Thank you so much for these lovely photos. I have been to Paris in the Spring and in the Summer and I look forward to another visit during the holidays! Your photos convince that I HAVE to do it! Cheers, Stephan

The windows are always so enchanting. I can never quite choose, although I have to say the whimsical Printemps might have a slight edge on my vote this year. Thanks for doing this each year, Peter. I love these pix!

Incroyable ! Tu n'as rien loupé depuis 2009 ! Le plus simple pour voir tous ces messages étant de cliquer sur le libellé "galeries lafayette"
Que va donc t'amener le père Noël cette année et s'est-il occupé des petits souliers de tes petits enfants, déjà ?
