Wichita and surrounding communities have several stores that do a fabulous job of dressing up their windows with funky furniture, gorgeous gowns and other consumer eye candy.

What store window do you look forward to seeing on a daily or weekly basis? What do you love about the display or the featured merchandise? We’re collecting information on store windows for a possible WichiTalk story. So please click on “comments” and tell us your favorite.
