It looks like all the shopping at Bendel’s and name dropping of Henri himself are really just a coincidence on Gossip Girl. Though that may change since the store’s Web site and consumer hotline have both seen increased traffic after airings of the fashionable teen drama. Shoppers seem eager to find out if the scenes from the show were really filmed in store (they were) and to get their hands on fashions inspired by their favorite characters. They might even catch a glimpse of Serena or Jenny since the actresses who play them, Blake Lively and Taylor Momsen have been known to shop the store.
