Barneys has long been known for an elitist attitude, expensive prices, and very unconventional clothing. The company began in 1923, when Barney Pressman opened his first store in Manhattan with $500 raised by pawning his wife's engagement ring. 60th St flagship store was open in 1993.
New York’s department store Barneys created for its holidays
2013 windows a futuristic vision of the island of Manhattan, called ‘A New York
Holiday’.

Celebrating the spirit and movement of New
York City, the holiday windows at Barneys boast light projections, 3-D
displays, LED screens and lots of silver and gold.
In one of the windows a futuristic couple, dressed in Space
Age costumes and ride their sleigh that looks more like a Batmobile. Visitors can become a part of the display with
an interactive experience that puts a whole new spin on sitting on the modern Santa’s
lap.
Another window features a jagged structure covered in
thousands of mirrors that glimmer and glisten in a burst of reflections and
patterns.
You have to enter the
large gold structure on the Madison Avenue sidewalk to experience an adventure through New York
City - futuristic floating model of NYC
that changes from white to brown to yellow and back to white thanks to a series
of light projections.
