Tom’s window display in three words:
“Camp, dark, vaporwave.”
The inspiration:
“‘In Fabric’, which is a horror comedy film about a killer vintage dress, blended with vaporwave themes inspired by albums such as Macintosh Plus’s ‘Floral Shoppe’.”
The process:
“My bedroom is very inspired by ’80s New Wave and Miami Art Deco, so I could pull pieces from what I had at home. I used spare tulle from our [Selfridges] Christmas window and some washing line, combined with my hue lights, my pot plant from my room and my ’80s pink prom dress.”
Tom’s window-dressing tips:
“Always add a statement or something unconventional – perhaps even controversial. I’m a big believer in the five-second rule with window displays: you should be able to grab the viewer’s attention in five seconds, then they will stop and look closer at the details.”
The reviews from Tom’s neighbours:
“‘Your room looks haunted’ and ‘it reminds me of the film ‘Suspiria’.”
