2008 MACY'S FLOWER SHOW








Spring has sprung, and one of New York's most iconic stores, MACY'S Herald Square on Broadway, is again hosting its annual flower show, turning over part of its store to incredible floral displays. Using over a million flowers from all over the world, horticulturists create wonderful floral displays inside the store. I took photos of the window displays featuring mannequins of KATE MOSS, IMAN and TWIGGY in gorgeous floral costumes. The show runs from March 16-30. 

Information from the store's website:
FLOWER SHOW OVERVIEW
Located just inside Macy's Broadway entrance, don't miss the centerpiece of this year's show – a breathtaking, highly detailed reproduction of Macy's historic Herald Square building, assembled entirely from organic plant materials by the renowned artist Paul Busse.
We're also proud to present Bouquet of the Day, a series of six dramatic bouquets by New York's most sought after floral designers. See schedule & details
