first reported that the retail store’s glossy catalog, recognized for its extravagant gifts, had been renamed the “Holiday Book” after being titled “Christmas Book” for nearly a century.

, Neiman Marcus said it was “kicking off the holiday season with an unprecedented array of luxury offerings,” including “personal shopping, gift wrapping, and Breakfast with Santa.”

But its beloved book was referred to as a “Holiday Book” that “evokes boundless optimism and child-like wonder for the holiday season, transporting customers into a storybook world inspired by enchanting fables, ****** tales, and folklore.”

A spokesman for the Dallas-based company told the Dallas Morning Star, that the removal of “Christmas” was made “in the spirit of inclusivity as it welcomes customers of all backgrounds, religions and traditions to celebrate the season.”

However, employees inside the organization say they are unhappy about the changes headed by CEO Geoffroy van Raemdonck.

“We found out via the Dallas Morning News article,” a Neiman employee told the New York Post. “The book didn’t need a name change. Personal opinions about inclusion — from Geoffroy and his leadership team — changed this.”

Another said, “If Geoffroy and his team put as much time into running the business as they did on expressing viewpoints about DEI, we would be buying Saks or launching an IPO,” one employee griped to The Post. “Instead, my job is at risk because of our business ********.” 

The Neiman Marcus “Christmas Book” has been in print since 1926 and first started as a 16-page booklet.
