Judy Maxwell, winner of the Racked Award for "Best Atmosphere / Creative Merchandising" received their mannequin head and turban in the mail and is now displaying it, as you can see here within the Thanksgiving section of the store.

Since the award has been Shoppers have been coming into the store, thinking it's for sale and want to buy it. Logically, the only thing to do is sell turbans in the store. Next week, look forward to pink and purple turbans galore. On a similar note, the store has now changed their Facebook profile photo to the mannequin wearing the gold turban.
