about : opening ceremony los angeles

Opening Ceremony opened its Los Angeles location in April of 2007 in the former dance studio space of Hollywood icon, Charlie Chaplin.  The 10,000 square foot boutique, located in West Hollywood, is the second shop operated by Opening Ceremony founders Carol Lim and Humberto Leon. Featuring a sprawling space of hallways and separate rooms, the shop’s inspiration stems from the experience of driving the L.A. freeways. Also featured is a new concept of boutique shopping: Branded shop-in-shop’s within Opening Ceremony L.A.’s second-floor “Mini-Mall.” Individual brands have created their own atmosphere and individual retail environments. Designers participating include Acne, Nom de Guerre, Mayle, Topshop, Exquisite Costume, Schiesser Revival, DAP Art Books, Other Music, BOY, Band of Outsiders, and Opening Ceremony’s own private label collection. The additional 6,000 square feet of retail shopping space parallels each label’s particular aesthetic and overall brand image using furniture, fixtures, wall decorations, and color schemes in each designer’s likeness.  The key objective was to create individual “shops” for each designer, as if they were to open their own freestanding stores, but to combine them in an environment represented by Opening Ceremony.
