As Ray A Smith reports for the Wall Street Journal:

“Taking on Neiman Marcus’s famed Christmas Book of extravagant ‘fantasy’ gifts, Saks is publishing its own hyperluxe gift guide, with merchandise ranging from a $935 Montblanc pen to a $1.35 million diamond ring. Its holiday plans range from new gift boxes with snowflake-decorated ribbons at all 39 Saks stores to more-elaborate window and store displays, to be unveiled next month with a multimedia production that includes a simultaneous eight-minute digital-projection show, light show, and live performance by the Rockettes.”
