Living at The Addison or The Ainsley just got even more couture. The high-fashion brand Gucci has opened a new store on Melrose Avenue, mere minutes from the walk-up townhomes at The Addison and The Ainsley nearby. Trendsetters are ready to shop the new Gucci x Adidas collection and browse the shelves of even more high-end stores soon to open in the Melrose District.
On June 7, Adidas and Gucci dropped their new collaboration, which originally debuted on the fall 2022 runway. Celebrities like Madonna and her son, David Banda, have been seen wearing the collection in advance of its availability in stores.
Designed by creative director and designer Alessandro Michele, the collection showcases just how stylish sportswear can be. Aspects of both brands are alive in the designs, such as Adidas’ trefoil logo and the familiar Gucci monogram. Tracksuit sets, shorts, skirts, and accessories make up the sell-out collection that’s had influencers and fashion stars in the industry talking.

One of the few pop-up shops selling the Gucci x Adidas collection is in our very own neighborhood, here on Melrose Avenue—just steps away from The Addison and The Ainsley. The four additional pop-up locations are currently in New York, Miami, Chicago, and Houston.
After taking over the former Marc Jacobs space, Gucci joins the continually expanding lineup of luxury brands in the Melrose District, including the likes of Balmain, Bottega Veneta, and more. With even more luxury brand names coming soon to the neighborhood, residents of The Ainsley and The Addison can never tire of the sophisticated shopping in the area.
There’s even more good news—Gucci is here to stay. While the pop-up will bring in crowds in the early days of the store’s opening, after its run, Gucci will continue to offer high-end shopping on Melrose Avenue. Continuing to be one of the most desired streets in all of Los Angeles, Melrose Avenue is the place to see and be seen this summer—in your most fashionable outfit, of course!Interested in more reasons to love living at The Melrose Collection?
