Marrying the bright, golden Harrods Christmas facade with Dior\u2019s shining Christmas collection, the two powerhouses have joined forces to create, arguably, the best Harrods Christmas on record. This marriage comes as a celebration of Dior\u2019s 70 years at Harrods, took over 19 months to plan (!!) and is the department store\u2019s largest takeover to date. To add the cherry on to the (gingerbread) cake, it is also my 25th Birthday on Christmas, so this collaboration could not have come at a better time. You can bet that I have the perfect excuse to return to my favourite city for Christmas.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/jojosdiary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Screenshot-2022-11-17-at-13.40.24.png?resize=619%2C257&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1280\" width=\"619\" height=\"257\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/jojosdiary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Screenshot-2022-11-17-at-13.40.24.png?w=1426&amp;ssl=1 1426w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/jojosdiary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Screenshot-2022-11-17-at-13.40.24.png?resize=300%2C125&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/jojosdiary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Screenshot-2022-11-17-at-13.40.24.png?resize=800%2C333&amp;ssl=1 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 619px) 100vw, 619px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>HARRODS WINDOWS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The journey starts outside, on Brompton Road, where Harrods and Dior magnetically draw you in. 44 of Harrods\u2019 windows showcase Dior\u2019s awe-inspiring work, featuring gingerbread scenery.
