Essex Clothing

I’m so glad that i found this little gem on melrose! It’s my go to shop for unique cool sexy tees! I own like 7 tee shirts and after each wash they get softer and softer def great quality! They also sell men’s clothes and really pretty jewelry! I always stop by there when I need to pick out a gift bc Essex will for sure have it! Also, the owner name is saad– he is so friendly and helpful and not to mention easy on the eye too ladies ;) i just can’t get enough of this store! I spend too much money there lol!

This is a great place to buy all my everyday and sporty or party clothing.
I love this place and specially the young good looking owner!!! The sales people are so nice and helpful.

I love this store! They have cool unique tshirts. I always get compliments, and questions about where I purchased when I wear them:) A must stop on Melrose!

It’s hard for me to find shirts I like but I always leave with a couple when I visit Essex. The t-​shirts are unique in cut/​fit/​style. The owner really seems to handpick these with care. The only thing is that they are kinda pricey… a t-​shirt will run you average about $ 32…

This shop on Melrose has both men & women clothes but very limited selection but that is OK because what they do have is awesome! I found 2 unique tees there and bought them up on a snap because they were so original that I wouldn’t find anywhere back home. It’s a very small shop connected to another girls shop but don’t miss this gem of a store called Essex! Great guys tees! The young man shop clerk was courteous, kind and knowledgeable. The boy shop clerks out customer serviced the shop girls.

Such a cool shop!
Before grabbing dinner with a friend, I had some time to kill and decided to hop into this shop and cruise it’s threads. In no time, I was making mental notes on each and every item I wanted to snatch up for my wardrobe. Then I came across the PERFECT striped long sleeve for my sister. I just knew she’d love it, and I bought it to give her for her birthday… so what if it isn’t for another month and a half? :)
When I went to the register in the back, the guy working was very friendly and asked if I found everything alright. I inquired about their exchange policy, thinking she may want a size up or down, or perhaps would wanna shop around for other items in case my taste wasn’t quite «on» that night. He said exchanges were no problem at all, for other sizes or anything else in the store. And timing wasn’t an issue either. I was worried I would be waiting so long to give it to her, but all my stress subsided when he assured me that she could come in anytime to exchange.
He rang up the cute sweater quickly, but not before I had time to admire all the accessories for sale by the register. I wanted to drop hundreds, but stayed strong, reminding myself I could come back any time and shop for myself. I still have a necklace on my mind at this very moment that I’d love to get back to and make mine!
As for my sister? I was so excited, I gave it to her the next night. And she LOVES it!!! Success.

LOVE THIS PLACE!
Great selection of trendy items. Great prices. All of it was just great! When I went they were having a sale on t-​shirts and dresses. Too bad I was low on funds by this time, I would have bought that whole sale rack. I will definitely be back next time I’m in town!

Best selection for trendy shirts that fit amazing. Have great style and helpful employees. Love this place. I have found some of my favorite shirts here. They also have pants and shorts that are great quality.

LOVE their huge selection of jewelry and fun t-​shirts! Alot of their necklaces are on long chains. My first time there I was slightly overwhelmed but found 2 of my now faves… a clock necklace and a compass. I wear them any time i can! This place fits perfectly along the Melrose strip. very hipster! love!

If you’re looking for something trendy then this is definitely the place. They have a pretty good selection of T-​shirts and dress shirts. I also noticed they have a huge selection of jewelry and accessory to go with your outfits. Thumbs up!!! ask for the owner Saad.

This place is exactly what I was looking for… The shirts are soft and the prints are really unique and vintage looking. The price is very appropriate for the quality. Ranges from $ 25 to $ 55 from what I remember. I am glad I work at the tattoo shop right across the street because now I can visit more often!

Not very impressed with the ownership at this establishment. Doesn’t respond to messages and never answers the phone.

Great store filled with plenty of nice tshirts. Their jewlery tree was covered in jewlery that was hand made and was fairly cheap considering how nice it was. In the back they had a 20 dollar section where I was able to find nice tshirts and jeans. I bought a tshirt for my girlfriend here and she loved it. The man who was working was very kind and even discounted the tax for me. The venue was well organized, clean, and I definently see myself going back in the near future.

Essex Clothing is one of my favorite new finds on Melrose; it’s one thing being able to window-​shop all the stores, but it takes a hell of a lot for me to want to spend my time and my money.
One of the first things I noticed was the material on their t-​shirts were made of — I felt like I was swimming in the most comfortable fabric; a definite plus in my book. Their designs were cute, conservative and sexy at the same time; just my style! I can’t wait to go back and see how their collection expands: D

I couldn’t take my eyes of the window of Essex. The most collections of rocker tee shirts.
Too bad they weren’t open that day, it would have been a shopping massacre.
I’ll try coming back next time I’m in Hollywood.

Be sure to check out Brooklyn Projects right next door. They have a large collection of Obey Clothing for women, with an original Shepard Fairey painting near the dressing rooms.

I felt like a giant trying on these clothes!
The first thing I noticed when I walked into this place was how uncomfortable I felt. Not like I was out of my element, because I was surely not, but you know that feeling when you drive onto a car dealership? Ya, that kind of feeling.
I got a birthday present from a friend that was purchased here. It was too small so I decided I’d go back and exchange it. I was hoping for a quick in and out deal, but that wasn’t the case. I was in the small space for a good hour or so. There was nothing in there that really stood out to me. In fact, I just asked for a refund because i didn’t want anything in there. I just can’t fathom paying $ 40+ for a t-​shirt that i can get at the 2^nd hand store next door for $ 9.99.
Also, i’m kind of a big dude 6′ 220 lbs and they have nothing that fit me. I had to spend an extra $ 25 just do buy a flannel shirt to leave the store. I’ve seen more unique styles from local artists than this place. But hey, if you’re into 5 different style or screen printed trees and birds or shirts that just have printed photos on them, then by all means, check it out. if you like different styles and colors and something more unique, check out other stores on Melrose.

Was walking by on my way to Blu Jam Café when I walked past a shirt that I have been trying to buy at Threadless for my boyfriend, except Threadless never has his size. We went in this wonderfully, small boutique and found the shirt and his size. They were having a sale! Everything was $ 19.99! We would have continued shopping but our meter was running out and we didn’t want to get a parking ticket.

Best t-​shirt boutique on Melrose!
The owner is a very cool guy who orders from a lot of great small designers. Great stuff at pretty reasonable prices (for LA anyway).
Not a ton of variety of types of clothing, but if you’re looking for a shirt or a hoodie, look no further.

My best friend’s boyfriend’s best friend owns this place and I’m glad otherwise I may never have found this little gem. I love Essex. They have stylish guys AND girls clothes [which is not commonly found in many of the stores on Melrose Ave.] Also they carry different brands then many of the women’s clothing stores on Melrose with cute, stylish options by brands like Sweet and Toxic.
Essex is easy to get to and they always have great clothing options for men and women!
