the art of visual merchandising

yesterday we went to Parkmall, Mandaue city for our art of display final requirement..

we are tasked to look for a current botique in the city and decorate its window display!
i never thought it would be sooo fun.. it felt like we weren't working on a plate at all..
i had fun most especially in choosing garments and accessories and dressing up the mannequins of the store.. since i already tried dismantling a mannequin during our art exhibit last year, it was all easy for me to undress the dummy yesterday!.. :Dgot all anxious and scared though! the dresses were like a thousand bucks!.. the store was classy and expensive looking.. one wrong move and i'd have to surrender my wallet to them.. hahahahaha!

here's how everything went through:
1. this is our store! (please do visit em.. they have lots of goodies in store.. XD)


2. here's how their window displays looked like before revamping them :3


3. Rachel and Jehan planning out the design.

(eeerr.. are u really planning out, girls?!.. hahaha)

4. it's an uphill climb! dont ya agree?!.. :3


5. we brought dem PROPZZ!.. (authentic goodies from our grandparents' closets.. haha!)

(majoy bought this at a nearby surplus shop..)

(rachel's dad's binoculars... coool!)
(jehan's dad's tv!.. back when black and white was the real thing!)
(jehan's dad''s leather luggage.. effing cool!) (rachel's grandpa's camera!.. it's a Kodak from the 40's..)(and here's my share of old stuff.. MY GRANDMA'S OVERNIGHT BAG!)

6. TANTANANANAAAAAAAN~!!!

(THE AFtERMATH.. XD)


kudos to my groupmates: rachel, majoy, john, jehan and debs for a job well done!.. XD
Nazzo's GM texted that night thanking for our effort.. they liked it and planned to have it on display for about a week or two!.. yaaaay.. XD

LESSON LEARNED: the best way to learn is by experiencing it!..
cant wait to work as a store visual artist soon.. :D
