Bloomingdale’s is kicking off the holiday season by detailing its annual campaign, titled “Best Holiday Ever.” Centerpieces of the effort include a Wonka-themed shopping space known as The Carousel @ Bloomingdale’s in its flagship store, as well as window displays there following the same motif. (The Carousel space will debut Nov. 3, and the windows will be unveiled Nov. 16.)

The retailer has undertaken those efforts in partnership with Warner Bros. Discovery, in conjunction with the upcoming release on Dec. 15 of Warner Bros. Pictures’ new movie, “Wonka.”

“Our Wonka carousel serves as a testament to our marketing position and how we embrace pop culture to create unique experiences for our customer,” said Frank Berman, EVP, Chief Marketing Officer at Bloomingdale’s. “From our incredibly curated and exclusive gifting assortment to our collaboration with Broadway Cares, Bloomingdale’s will truly come alive through the magic of film and theater.”

She Wanted to Spend More Time with Her Kids. She Called Wilkerson.

Your children are precious. More precious than gold? Absolutely! Just ask Lesley Ann Davis, owner of Lesley Ann Jewels, an independent jewelry store that — until the end of 2023 — had quite a following in Houston, Texas. To spend more time with her four sons, all in high school, she decided to close her store. Luckily, she was familiar with Wilkerson and called them as soon as she knew she wanted to move on to bigger, better and more family-focused things. Was she happy with her decision? Yes, she was. Says Davis, “Any owner looking to make that life change, looking to retire, looking to close, looking for a pause in their career, I would recommend Wilkerson. Hands down!”
