Designed to indulge the visitors in the holiday spirit, the animated wintry animal scenes feature bunnies ice-skating on a forest pond, squirrels playing above, mice frolicking merrily with snow-covered bear friend, mother owl protecting her new-born babies on treetop nest, peaceful foxes slumbering underground, dancing raccoons and a gaggle of geese wrapped in a wreath.

Lord & Taylor introduced its first-ever animated holiday windows in 1937. Considered a gift to the city, the retailer never includes commercial products in its animated displays on Fifth Avenue. Check out the NYC flagship store’s annual holiday windows unveiling and take a look at behind the scenes of the production for the big night!
