D. Porthault: His and Hers


 What better way to show the luxurious, hand silk screened linens of D. Porthault than within Geoff's hand painted display of a well appointed home! Like birds of a fine feather, the patterns in the fabrics and Geoff's light and loose painting flock together. So if you happen to fly by the D. Porthault flagship on Mad ave by chance, we hope you will alight to take a glance.

Midnight in the garden of Versailles

The holidays bring their frosty touch to the gardens of Versailles, I mean, D Porthault...  Carefully clipped boxwood topiaries dusted with snow and glowing lights below a hand painted midnight sky create a wintry atmosphere around the cherub sculpture centerpiece bedecked in the latest of D. Porthault's luxurious linens.  The side windows  also carried the frosty theme.

D. Porthault: A French botanical moment


Inspired by the gardens of France, luxury french linen maker D. Porthault's current window on Park Avenue features 18th century style statuary,  swathed in floral motif pillows and sheets in front of an impressionistic, lavender hued landscape.











The interior was also restyled to reflect the botanical theme.

Color Waves

Winter is finally ebbing and as Spring approaches, Porthault's new window is bursting with bright and happy colors to wake you up!







A look at Geoff's design for the windows. Porthault is famous it's wavy (or scalloped) edges on its sheets and towel, which helped to inspire the whimsical take on this shape.



The color palette was inspired by the merchandise, and Geoff creates a simply and vivid vignette using reverse painted walls, floors, floating frames and tassles.






The theme continues around the corner, as the mannequins show off the latest robes

And a Peacock in a Porthault Pear Tree

These peacocks made their debut in Silver during last September's Fashion Night Out and were so popular they turned into gold just in time for the holidays. Porthault's signature pink hue was the color of the season and was used throughout the store to highlight their beautiful new merchandise. The back panel of the window display features large flower outlines in brilliant gold and dotted with pink lights.

The store throughout was merchandised with pink and gold and a matching background was placed behind the bed at the back of the store, inviting you to explore further...
