Across from the Rockefeller Center tree, Saks Fifth Avenue tells the Yuletide tale of plucky Art Aimesworth vs. the Dark Elves in six sprightly windows (with narration by Cindy Crawford, Peter Duchin, Brooke Shields, Dominick Dunne, Martha Stewart and seven others). At Fendi the Christmas trees are as svelte and haughty as the Euro-mannequins. From the windows of the Warner Bros. Studio Store, a behemoth Bugs and three of his Looney Tunes...
