Surrealism at Selfridges
Going gaga for Dada: how one of the displays at the Oxford Street store will look

A Selfridges window? Yes, it surreally is

Patrick Sawer, Evening Standard

Top designers have turned Selfridges' famous windows into eye-catching homages to Surrealism.

Moschino, Galliano and Viktor & Rolf are among those whose work is unveiled today to launch a three-month celebration of the art movement.

Rather than the usual handbags, clothes and jewellery, the Oxford Street store's windows now contain such oddities as naked mannequins in cages, an upside-down tailor's dummy, chair and chandelier and a life-sized model of a horse with a lampshade on its head.

The display is to tie in with the V&A Museum's Surreal Things exhibition, which opens on 29 March.
