No, it's not hard-hitting journalism about retail fashion or conspicuous consumption. It's more like a graceful authorized biography of an institution.

There's probably a brilliant documentary to be made at New York department store Bergdorf Goodman. No such luck
Cath Clarke, Time Out
Rotten
The overall feel is less of a cohesive documentary and more of a slapdash scrapbook of facts, historical information and name-dropping.
Debra B. Bass, St. Louis Post-Dispatch

Much of the window dressing has gone out of fashion. It's nice to revisit it here.
Suzanne S. Brown, Denver Post

As a sociological exercise, it's like another culture. As a film, it's like science fiction, a visit to Planet Obscenely Wealthy. It is weirdly compelling.
