The Hollywood Reporter‘s Shop Talk covers retail openings, boutique news and more in its latest guide to shopping in Los Angeles.
From Hollywood-inspired experiences to pop-ups by starry brands, there’s plenty of retail therapy in the City of Angels this month. Khloé Kardashian-founded label Good American is bringing its size-inclusive denim to Zara in the form of a pop-up shop on Melrose, but those outside of L.A. can shop the collaboration online and elsewhere.
Those who can’t get enough of period fashion pop-ups (à la Bridgerton‘s The Queen’s Ball experiences in L.A. and beyond) can grab a seat at Old Hollywood haunt Langham Huntington Hotel, where Downton Abbey: A New Era is bringing British tea and bites all month.
Ahead, check out other Hollywood-loved brands that have set up shop in L.A. — and how to visit them virtually online.
