SAKS FIFTH AVENUE CELEBRATES THE 50TH ANNIVERSARY OF SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE
In honor of Saturday Night Live’s 50th anniversary, Saks Fifth Avenue is unveiling a special window installation at the Saks Fifth Avenue New York flagship store. From now through February 10th, Saks’ legendary Fifth Avenue windows will take customers on a journey through SNL moments over the past 50 years, alongside limited-edition, show-inspired merchandise, available only at Saks.
Curated in partnership with SNL’s costume designer, the windows use archival costumes and video to highlight the intersection of costume design and storytelling. The first five windows pay homage to each decade of SNL’s history. Each one highlights two memorable sketches and characters from each decade of the show. Sketches include Bill Murray’s “Nick the Lounge Singer” from the 1970s, Dana Carvey and Kevin Nealon’s “Hans and Franz” from the 1980s, Molly Shannon’s “Mary Katherine Gallagher” from the 1990s, Bill Hader’s “Stefon” from the 2000s and “The Californians” from the 2010s, among others.
The final window showcases products from Favorite Daughter and Le Labo Fragrances. And each one features QR codes that direct to Saks’ dedicated SNL landing page, Saks.com/SNL50, where customers can shop the Saks-exclusive, SNL-inspired items and explore more editorial content.
