On November 18th, Bloomindales unveiled their most opulent window display ever and NewYorkCool.com photographer Lizzie Heard was on hand to document it for our New York Cool readers. The Phantom movie opened December 22nd and is presently in theaters nationwide.
Enjoy!

Three wildly elaborate masks.

 

From the boat scene in the movie where the Phantom takes Christine down into the bowels of the Paris Opera House.

 

Mask: From the Masquarade number in the film, where everyone comes to a costume ball dressed in black and white and wearing masks.

 

Another opera that is performed in the movie and the elaborate costumes from that scene. It is the second opera performed. The original diva comes back and gets the lead and Christine is bumped down to the page boy.

 

Diva of the Opera: From the scene in the show where the original diva, played by Minnie Driver in the film, quits and creates the opportunity for Christine to replace her as the star of the show.

 

This gown was not in the film but was rather inspired by it. The mannequin looks like the lead female character, Christine, played by Emmy Rossum.
