Brazilian style has landed in West Hollywood. Adding to the first location in Venice, Farm Rio’s second L.A. spot brings the brand’s colorful prints and patterns to Melrose Ave. Featuring watercolor wallpaper with Brazil-inspired landscapes handpainted by French artist Dominique Jardy—and fitting rooms designed and crafted by artist Alê Sisdelli made with sustainably sourced Buriti straw—the boutique is deeply rooted in its Brazilian culture. Look out for festive items from the brand’s core collection and collaborations.
Melrose Ave. recently welcomed this minimalist Swedish brand to the block, neighboring other Scandinavian go-tos such as Ganni and Byredo. Conceived by Swedish design studio Halleroed in a serene, sculptural style, the store features pieces by Swedish female artists and vintage furniture among streamlined denim, sweaters, dresses, bags and more.

After a successful opening at The Grove, New York-based menswear brand Todd Snyder has gone west, opening a second L.A. location on Abbot Kinney Blvd. The 1,700-square-foot converted Craftsman bungalow—with custom upholstery and curtains by Rose Uniacke—houses a range of offerings: tailored and casual clothing, footwear, jewelry, apothecary items and accessories.

Get a dose of Southern hospitality at the new Billy Reid store on Abbot Kinney, where clothing and accessories made from high-quality fabrics with carefully considered details reign supreme. The store itself is beautiful, with tall ceilings, exposed brick, Turkish rugs and an expansive open bookshelf. Shop for classics like perfectly worn denim shirts, chore jackets, button-downs and limited-edition seasonal items.

This August, Beverly Hills welcomes its first permanent Givenchy store. Located in the iconic Frank Lloyd Wright-designed building at 332 N. Rodeo Drive, the West Coast’s first Givenchy flagship will open in two phases. Expect to shop the brand’s Fall 2024 pre-collection, select pieces from the Fall/Winter 2024 runway show, statement accessories and store exclusives, including the limited-edition Shark Lock cowboy boots in white leather with turquoise stitching and the Rodeo Drive Limited Edition Mini Antigona Lock bag in a similar colorway.

Head to Fie Isolde for Danish jewelry with an L.A. edge. Founder Fie Isolde Baek hand-sculpts each design with her signature raw and organic look—she believes that feeling the weight of gold in each piece adds to the tactile experience. Look out for the new Secret Note collection at the Sycamore Ave. store, along with some of Baek’s favorites—the Odette necklace and any of the rings, which she feels perfectly define the brand.
Located right off the PCH at the new Cross Creek Ranch complex is beloved streetwear shop Kith, which carries the complete assortment of Kith, Kith Women, Kith Kids and more. Also in store is Kith Treats, the delish cereal-infused ice cream parlor. Try The Caramel Soba Cha Swirl, a limited-edition dessert created with Nobu.
