Luxury fashion label Aimé Leon Dore has opened a flagship store in West Hollywood, marking its first location on the US West Coast.
Located on Melrose Avenue, the botique was developed in close collaboration with New York-based Sarita Posada Interiors.
The design draws on European residential architecture, featuring stucco walls, wood-framed windows, and a central courtyard that connects the retail space with an in-house cafe.
Its facade includes a cobblestone layout and an olive tree sourced from California’s Central Valley. Meanwhile, its interior combines wood and limestone finishes, with natural light used to highlight the brand’s collections.
An adjoining cafe forms part of the space, continuing a format seen in the brand’s New York and London locations. It features green millwork and a marble mosaic design by Alekos Fassianos, alongside a custom espresso setup.
The opening follows continued expansion for the brand, which received investment from LVMH through its venture arm in 2022.
Founded in 2014 by Teddy Santis, Aimé Leon Dore has built a following through collaborations with brands including New Balance and Clarks.
