Salvador Dali comes to Town

This is a display in a side window of Harvey Nichol's in Multrees Walk, a wide lane of unaffordable luxury shops running from St Andrew Square to the back door of John Lewis, and without a tree in sight far less a Mul-tree.
The name doesn't seem to me to have any Scottish connections; it would be interesting to know what the rationale was behind it, when it was christened.

Access to Lewis's is the only reason I would be passing this window display, as
Harvey Nicks is not a shop for me: someone vertically challenged, with the physique of an inveterate cake consumer and not in receipt of a banker's bonus.

Their clothes are largely for the taller lady with a frame size in single figures and happy to spend an inordinate amount of money to look labelled and expensive.
I did grace their cafe on the opening day with a complementary ticket many years ago.

Nevertheless their window displays are particularly artistic; wonderful pieces of installation art of the kind that is almost understandable. This one is not so much installation, more a 3-D interpretation of a Salvador Dali painting. It seemed appropriate today with it's umbrellas.

The fracture clinic is looming this afternoon with it crowded waiting room of slings, casts and crutches. I'm not holding my breath for a quick exit.
