Shopping Guide: 3 New Stellar LA Boutiques

by Shannon Nash

Zoe Media Group is lucky enough to call the heart of West Hollywood home, an area thick with gorgeous designer boutiques. Just when we thought it couldn’t get any better around here, 3 stellar stores have recently opened that we couldn’t be more psyched about. Welcome to the neighborhood Moschino, The Elder Statesman and Irene Neuwirth! We’re loving the luxe vibe of each of these gorgeous outposts, although being in such close proximity to them is a major hazard for our wallets. Nothing like a little retail therapy over lunch hour, right?

The Elder Statesman

Known for their impossibly yummy cashmere blankets, sweaters and accessories, The Elder Statesman opened its first storefront in November. The spot boasts an impressive cacti garden and sprawling outdoor patio so inviting it almost feels like you're visiting the home of your coolest friend.

The Elder Statesman

The stacks of cashmere beanies and incredibly soft sweaters practically scream, "wear me."

Moschino

Moschino's Creative Designer Jeremy Scott said, “I wanted an open gallery space that would be a blank canvas for my collections. I hope people will love the environment and want to come in and hang out.” We can confirm this new boutique is a gallery-like experience complete with the surreal art that is Moschino Couture!

Moschino

The 3,500 square-foot store is an explosion of vibrant color housing Moschino's ready-to-wear collections, jewelry, lingerie, swimwear, fragrance and tech accessories. Talk about eye candy.

Irene Neuwirth

Walking into Irene Neuwirth's first flagship boutique is literally like walking into a jewel box—one full of gorgeous raw gemstones and glittering pavé creations. Irene designed more than 200 one-of-a-kind pieces for the store, making this destination a must-visit if you're in the market for an anniversary, birthday or Valentine's Day gift.

Irene Neuwirth

The airy space—complete with a long, walnut dining table running through it—is the perfect setting to linger with a loved one while trying on serious bling. Hey, a girl can dream!
