    New York’s changing department store landscape - by Joseph Aquino December 17, 2019 - New York City Department stores come and go. When one goes out of business, it’s nothing unusual. But consider how many have gone out of business in New York City in just the past generation: Gimbels, B. Altman, Mays, E. J. Korvette, Alexanders, Abraham & Straus, Gallerie Lafayette, Wanamaker, Sears & Roebuck, Lord & Taylor, Bonwit Teller, and now Barneys New York—and those are just the ones I remember. The long-time survivors are Bloomingdale’s, Saks Fifth Avenue, Bergdorf Goodman and Macy’s. The new kids on the block are Nordstrom (which has had a chance to study their customer since they have operated Nordstrom Rack for some time) and Neiman-Marcus, which has opened at Hudson Yards with three levels of glitz, glam, luxury, and fancy restaurants. It’s unfortunate to see Lord & Taylor go, especially to be taken over by a group like WeWork, which has been on a meteoric rise to the top of the heap and controls a lot of office space. I was disappointed at this turn of events but I understood it, and was not surprised. Lord & Taylor had the best ladies’ department (especially for dresses) in Manhattan. I know, because I try to be a good husband, so I shop with my wife a lot! But that was a huge amount of space for the company to try to hold onto. Neither does the closing of Barneys comes as any shock. I frequented Fred’s Restaurant often and that was the place to see and be seen.

Jessie Franklin Turner: American Fashion and "Exotic" Textile Inspiration by Patricia E. Mears Jessie Franklin Turner was an American couturier who played a prominent role in the emergence of the high-fashion industry in this country, from its genesis in New York during the First World War to the flowering of global influence exerted by Hollywood in the thirties and forties. The objective of this paper is not only to reveal the work of this forgotten designer, but also to research the traditional and ethnographic textiles that were important sources of inspiration in much of her work. Turner's hallmark tea gowns, with their mix of "exotic" fabrics and flowing silhouettes, evolved with the help of a handful of forward-thinking manufacturers and retailers who, as early as 1914, wished to establish a unique American idiom in design.

  • Bonwit Teller's First Female President, 1934-1940 Michael Mamp
    Charlotte, North Carolina 2014 Proceedings Hortense Odlum: Bonwit Teller’s first female president, 1934-1940 Michael Mamp, Central Michigan University, USA; Sara Marcketti, Iowa State University, USA Keywords: Hortense Odlum, Bonwit Teller, retail, history From the late 19th century onward, a myriad of new retail stores developed within the United States. These establishments provided shoppers, particularly women, assortments of fashion products that helped shape the American culture of consumption. Authors have explored the role that women played as consumers and entry-level saleswomen in department stores in both America and abroad.1 However, aside from scholarship regarding Dorothy Shaver and her career at Lord & Taylor, little is known about other female leaders of retail companies. Shaver is documented as the first female President of a major American retail company and the “first lady of the merchandising world.”2 However, Hortense Odlum, who served as first President and then Chairwoman of Bonwit Teller from 1934-1944, preceded Shaver by ten years.3 Furthermore, although Bonwit Teller operated for close to a hundred years (1895-1990), the history of the store remains somewhat obscure. Aside from brief summaries in books that speak to the history of department stores, no comprehensive history of the company exists. A historical method approach was utilized for this research. Primary sources included Odlum’s autobiography A Woman’s Place (1939), fashion and news press articles and advertisements from the period, archival records from multiple sources, and oral history.4 The use of multiple sources allowed for the validation of strategies noted in Odlum’s autobiography. Without previous management or business knowledge, Odlum approached her association with the store from the only perspective she really knew, that of a customer first who appreciated quality, style, service, and friendliness.5 She created an environment that catered to a modern woman offering products that would be appreciated, truly a Woman’s Place.

    DONALD TRUMP REFLECTS ON HIS BEGINNINGS, VENTURES, AND PLANS FOR THE FUTURE Donald Trump Chairman and President The Trump Organization December 15, 2014 Excerpts from Mr. Trump's Remarks Are you considering running for President? I am considering it very strongly. How did you get started in business, buying a hotel, with almost no money? Well, it was owned by the Penn Central Railroad and it was run by some very good people. Actually, it's very interesting, because he happens to be a very good man. It was Victor Palmieri and Company. And one of the people is John Koskinen. Does anyone know John Koskinen? He's the head of the IRS. And he's a very good man. And while I'm a strong conservative and a strong Republican, he's a friend of mine. And he did a great job running Victor Palmieri. And I made deals with John and the people at Victor Palmieri and took options to the building. And after I took options to the Commodore, I then went to the city. Because the city was really in deep trouble. I was about 28 years old, and the city was really in trouble. And I said look, you're going to have to give me tax abatement. Otherwise this was never going to happen. Then I went to Hyatt. I said you guys put up all the money and I'll try and get the approvals. And I got all the approvals. And Hyatt, Jay Pritzker and the Pritzker family, they put up the money.

  • The Bonwit Teller Window: Homoeroticism and Gender Play in Andy Warhol’S Early Pop Exhibition
    THE BONWIT TELLER WINDOW: HOMOEROTICISM AND GENDER PLAY IN ANDY WARHOL’S EARLY POP EXHIBITION BY DANA LOUISE OSTRANDER THESIS Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Art History in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2013 Champaign, Illinois Adviser: Assistant Professor Terri Weissman ABSTRACT In April of 1961 Andy Warhol exhibited five of his early Pop paintings in the Bonwit Teller window on East 57th Street in New York City (Fig. 1). Juxtaposing fashionably clothed mannequins with paintings inspired by popular culture, the display represents a transitional moment in Warhol’s career. By 1960 Warhol had begun to decrease his commercial output in pursuit of a career as a gallery artist, taking up painting in lieu of illustration. The resulting paintings offer an unusual assortment of influences, combining commercial subject matter derived from comic books and tabloids with a painterly style reminiscent of the prevailing Abstract Expressionist tradition. In spite of their artificial construction, these visible brushstrokes, blotches, and drips construct a pretense of spontaneity and contingency. In the course of several months, such gestural marks would be removed from Warhol’s work entirely. His initial impulse to include them, however, can be at least partially attributed to the financial success and mainstream acceptance of the stereotypically masculine, heterosexual action painters. While most Abstract Expressionist artists appealed to standards of heteronormativity, the sphere of commercial illustration – particularly that which featured fashion, female goods, and conspicuous consumption – was widely considered feminine and therefore homosexual. In this paper, I will argue that Warhol’s integration of commercial content and fine art style, his parodic deconstruction of gender binaries, and his smuggling of homoerotic imagery into the heteronormative space of the Bonwit Teller window create a liminal zone where such opposites can be manipulated and merged.

  • The Vernacular As Vanguard Alfred Barr, Salvador Dalí, and the U.S. Reception of Surrealism in the 1930S
    Journal of Surrealism and the Americas 1 (2007), 44-67 44 The Vernacular as Vanguard Alfred Barr, Salvador Dalí, and the U.S. Reception of Surrealism in the 1930s Sandra Zalman University of Southern California Because of Surrealism’s dynamic but problematic relationship to popular culture, the movement’s significance within art history has in large part not been easily defined. Indeed, the historiography of Surrealism in the United States shows it to be an under-evaluated alternative to the critical dominance of abstraction and Cubism, and one that we have not come to understand with the same level of complexity. Instead, Surrealism is often presented in American university surveys as a bridge between European and American art during World War II, at the time of the Surrealist exile in the United States and just prior to the genesis of Abstract Expressionism.1 But, as I want to show in this paper, Surrealism’s influence on the development of an American artistic culture not only begins earlier—it also lasts far beyond the post-World War II period. The complex permutations of Surrealism’s American reception in the 1930s reflect a struggle with the interpretation of avant- garde art, since Surrealism’s own contentious stance toward high art eventually undermined its ability to be a subversive alternative as it was taken up by all manner of capitalist enterprise. Since its introduction to American mass audiences in the 1930s, Surrealism has continued to be embroiled in contemporary culture, long after its practitioners have ceased to be involved in the movement. Seemingly resistant to art historical classification, Surrealism’s malleability offers a way to question the narratives of modern art that it traversed.
