7 Best Shopping Destinations in West Hollywood

It's impossible to talk about West Hollywood (aka WeHo) without mentioning its sprawling shopping districts. Glitzy, glamorous, and LA's epicenter of fashion, art, and culture, this small city is where you get all the cutting-edge trends and exclusive high-end retail shops.

WeHo's design district — wedged between the intersection of Melrose Avenue and Beverly Boulevard — is the breathing canvas for high-caliber fashion, art, design, beauty, and so much more. Little wonder it's home to over 250 luxury retailers alone. "Trends start here," as locals fondly say, and we couldn't agree more.

Step into the streets of this vibrant California city and immerse yourself in the dazzling world of posh galleries and glass-front stores flashing antique decor or bohemian-punk gift items.

It doesn't matter if you're looking for a statement Tiffany necklace to complement that vintage gown you've had for weeks or need some high-impact furniture to level up your home's ambiance. Whatever your desires, WeHo's got something to satisfy your shopping needs. 

Why don't we have a quick glance at some of the top-rated shopping destinations in WeHo. Honestly, you can't afford to miss these places!

So we all wondered — as did Meryl Shabani — how a famed Parisian fashion retail store she inherited from her parents would make its seamless import of an extension into the United States. It was no surprise she'd choose glamorous West Hollywood as the ultimate locale.

Spread out over three floors in the Beaux-Arts style, L'eclaireur offers the most exquisite home décor, luxury furnishings, ceramics, sophisticated art pieces, Piero Fornasetti's signature pieces, glassware, and so much more. 

Its Parisian outlets focus mostly on an exclusive selection of fashions from top designers, like Maison Margiela, Zimmerman, Reebok, and Nike. But the West Hollywood branch is more of an interior dècor and furniture shop with a handful of richly curated American and European designer collections.

Stop by this shop for all your silverware, vintage Italian designs, sculptures, and intricate wall art. Perhaps you'll just fall in love with something else that could go well on your dressing table.

Maxfield

More than just a gallery. More than just a mini department store. More than just a boutique.

This iconic luxury destination offers everything from vintage 20th-century furniture to mid-century luxury Parisian pieces sold in a space that resembles an art gallery. You'll find the perfect pieces for your taste, from Waikiki lounge chairs to vintage armchairs, rocchetto stools, and so many others.

At Maxfield, black is chic, so be prepared for the avant-garde, all-black sophistication that is this vintage fortress. From pop-up brands like Fear of God and Enfants Riches Déprimés to curated designer collections like Balmain, Maison Margiela, Dior, and Saint Laurent, Maxfield has got it all for you. And you absolutely can't ignore the vitrines holding extensive collections of antique Hermès bags and Cartier.

Combining haute couture with emerging talents and a tasteful selection of art, this luxury shopping destination drips with luxury and is a must-stop for your high-end fashion needs.   (Image Credit: Time Out)
