Victoria’s Secret – New Bond Street Flagship Temporary Fitting Rooms

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Hello Flamingo were approached by the store design team from Victoria’s Secret to manufacture 8 temporary fittings rooms for the ground floor of their New Bond Street flagship store, which were to fit within the space of the existing beauty hall space. These were to be built to last for at least 7.5 weeks during the makeover of the permanent fitting rooms on the ground floor. [/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height="25px"][vc_column_text] The design brief was to make the space feel temporary, giving the impression of being backstage of one of the famous Victoria’s Secret fashion shows. Hello Flamingo design team created a concept for the fitting rooms which involved a 6m x 6m self-supporting steel structure which was modular to enable it to be installed on site with ease. The freestanding structure included 8 individual fitting rooms, measuring 1.3x1.3m each, a large central waiting space and an entrance space. The entirety of the steel walls were clad in...

Miss Sixty – Westfield

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Miss Sixty, the Italian fashion brand, came to Hello Flamingo with a concept for their SS18 window displays, for their Westfield, London and Brompton Road stores. [/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height="25px"][vc_column_text] The design concept, which will be seen in Miss Sixty stores internationally, was made up of hundreds of beautiful spring coloured flowers, tumbling from floating urns, floating mini birdcages filled with flowers and a vintage swing with floral arrangements. The window props were produced in-house at the Hello Flamingo workshop, just outside Brighton. A polystyrene former created the base for the cascade of flowers. Carved by the team, it held its own weight with the urn attached. And the hundreds of flowers were hand applied to give the impression of them spilling out of the urn. This pretty scheme really embodies the change in season and has been well received by the client. [/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]...

Aquascutum – Christmas

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Hello Flamingo had the pleasure of working again with the lovely team at Aquascutum, on their Christmas 2017 window display in their Great Marlborough Street store. [/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height="25px"][vc_column_text] A wonderfully wintry scene was set across the store with an icy effect on the windows and snow filling the window. Wrought iron gates with beautiful Christmas wreaths, illuminated lamp posts and frosty trees with lights added to the dreamy feel of the window. Little details such as tiny robins sitting on the gates and trees were perfect additions to complete the festive feel. [/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]...

Ted Baker – The Greatest Showman

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Hello Flamingo were delighted to be asked by the team at Ted Baker to collaborate with them on a Christmas window display in Selfridges department store, London. [/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height="25px"][vc_column_text] The Ted Baker creative window team designed the window for the release of the Fox movie, The Greatest Showman. The circus themed display includes an intricate metal backdrop created in-house by the Hello Flamingo team, which was sprayed soft gold. With sumptuous red velvet drapes framing the window perfectly. Product sits on the seats of gold unicycles with animated neon lit wheels, which balance on a tightrope across the window. Round illuminated circus plinths worked perfectly to showcase the gorgeous bags. We are so proud to be have been part of this incredible installation. [/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]...

Browns – Christmas

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] The creative team at, high end boutique, Browns came to us with designs for their Christmas 2017 windows. The fun concept involves everyone’s favourite Christmas gift – socks! [/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height="25px"][vc_column_text] In one window 4 pairs of lady’s mannequin legs, were suspended, crossed legged, from a clean white wall. Each pair of legs had a pair of Vetements socks and a gorgeous pair of evening shoes. Another window was adorned with festive garlands made from white rope and socks – each sock had a solid template inside to keep its shape. A giant lightbox/mini theatre was built in another, for a display of sock puppets (supplied by the client). The very stylish puppets were held in place by wooden mannequin hands, sourced by the Hello Flamingo team. Two giant Christmas trees, made from enormous polystyrene cones, each overlaid with green socks to give the effect of the branches and then wrapped in fairy lights. A replica stone...

Highways England – Distressed

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] George and Dragon, the London-based advertising agency, came to Hello Flamingo to manufacture the interior of a pop-up store for Highways England, in Shoreditch, London. [/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height="25px"][vc_column_text] The store was part of the Highways England’s 'Distressed' campaign, launched in November 2017, which aims to reduce the numbers of young motorcyclists killed or seriously injured on the UK’s roads. Hello Flamingo’s in-house production team built copper clothing rails, a fitting room, cash desk, vinyling and a floating clothing sculpture, which hung from the ceiling above a motorcycle, for the store. The rails held a clothing range of ‘distressed’/worn/scuffed garments each with a unique price tag – instead of a monetary value, the tag had a list of injuries or hospital treatments that a young rider could face as a result of an accident and more specifically not wearing the correct protective clothing in an accident. The pop-up had secret cameras filming the space with...

Stella McCartney – Christmas Projects

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] We were delighted to hear from the creative team from Stella McCartney, who wanted our help on two fun Christmas projects. [/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height="25px"][vc_column_text] The first was for an event in Selfridges department store, London. A Christmas cart supplied by Selfridges was to be given a creative treatment to make it stand out and represent the Stella McCartney brand. The brief was to make the cart glow, cover it in as many multicoloured fairy lights as we could! The in-house team painted the base of the cart dark green to match the cable of the lights and then got wrapping! Around 30 sets of lights covered the cart. There was also a high gloss double tiered plinth on the cart to display product and mince pies – yummy! The second brief was to create giant gift bows to act as heads for children’s mannequins in concession stores around the world, destinations included Singapore, Dubai and Hong...

Aquascutum – Made-To-Measure

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Aquascutum asked Hello Flamingo to collaborate again on a window for the Jermyn Street store, to showcase their Made-to-Measure range. [/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height="25px"][vc_column_text] A triangular steel frame, built by the Hello Flamingo in-house team, was suspended from the ceiling for the mannequin to be placed inside. Vintage tailoring items, (scissors, thimbles, thread reels etc) were sprayed gold and suspended from the ceiling to give the feel of them floating in mid-air. The simple window concept is really impactful and has been very well received. [/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]...

Ted Baker – Montreal

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] The creative team at Ted Baker asked Hello Flamingo to create a unique piece of art to go on the wall in their newly opening pop-up store in Montreal, Canada. [/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height="25px"][vc_column_text] Taking the theme of the store from Montreal’s famous association with music and its annual jazz festival, the store was filled with musical memorabilia. The piece Hello Flamingo were asked to create was a sculpture measuring over 3m wide by 1.5m high, consisting of antique brass instruments. French horns, trumpets, trombones and the like, were sourced from antique fairs, flea markets and auction sites and built by the Hello Flamingo in-house team. The piece was then very carefully packed to make the journey from Brighton to Canada. It looks stunning in the incredible store – we always love working with the Ted Baker team!
