Marni
For just a moment when Marni glanced outward from her display she thought she saw her doppelgänger. Quite shaken it took a minute to regain her composure & take a second peek. She saw it was just her own reflection captured in the glass revolving door located directly across from her display at Bergdorf’s.
Marni was a little superstitious which explains volumes because just that morning on her way to Bergdorf’s to work her usual display hours, she was forced to walk under a ladder to avoid the broken up sidewalk by the construction crew. So her imagination was already on edge by the time she got there.
Deep breathing, a little meditation and chamomile tea calmed her nerves and she was glad to have nothing more on her mind the rest of the day.
Mannequin Reflections - Behind the Glass
Imagine standing before a stunning window display, a world of fantasy and glamour frozen in time. The mannequins, seemingly alive, pose amidst intricate sets, a testament to the artistry of the designer.
This was the inspiration for my blog series, Mannequin Reflections. Armed with nothing more than my iPhone, I began capturing these captivating scenes, drawn to the unique interplay of light and reflection.
As I experimented with different angles and perspectives, I realized that the glass itself was an integral part of the story. It acted as a mirror, reflecting the world outside and creating a mesmerizing blend of reality and illusion.
It was in these reflections that I found my muse. I began to envision the lives of these mannequins, the stories they could tell if only they could speak.
