Within the Los Angeles area, the French company has one other location, situated 22 miles away on Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills. “We’ve some clients that live nearby [Westfield Topanga] and don’t need to make the trek all the way in which into Beverly Hills. So, for us, it’s nice because we expect we’ve a mix of clients who already are acquainted with the brand who’re excited for us to open here in addition to a probability for us to talk to recent and younger clients who might not be shopping with us,” Mahady explained.

For the brand new outpost within the San Fernando Valley, Hermès worked with Parisian architecture agency RDAI. Together they created an interior with colours that mix in with the California landscape and climate. The shop’s façade has columns with hues and textures taking their cue from the nearby Topanga State Park.

Inside, there are 4 spaces showcasing different categories. In the primary are women’s silk, perfume and wonder products in a terracotta setting.

This recent wing complements the opposite luxury stores which have been within the shopping mall for years, including Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, Tiffany & Co., Burberry, Cartier and Louis Vuitton.

“With the brand new luxury stores coming to Westfield Topanga, we can have greater than 25 luxury stores,” said Colin Shaughnessy, executive vice chairman of U.S. leasing at Unibail-Rodamco-Westfield, which owns the mall. “The valley is popping into that second luxury destination outside of Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills. We get the Malibu customer coming through the canyon. We’re pulling the Santa Barbara customer down here quite regularly, which saves them an hour to drive to Rodeo Drive. And our core customers are in Calabasas and Hidden Hills.”

This recent Hermès store comes a month after the French luxury brand traveled to the Colorado mountains to unveil a recent outpost in Aspen, Colorado. In February, the high-end label unveiled a recent location in Naples, Florida.
