Shop Chanel, Hermès, and Loro Piana in San Diego at Westfield UTC’s New Luxury Wing

Westfield UTC has unveiled its new 70,000-square-foot luxury wing. Five of the world’s most sought-after fashion houses are making their San Diego debuts there: Brunello Cucinelli, Bvlgari, Chanel, Hermès, and Loro Piana.

The wing rounds out more than a decade of investment in the La Jolla center. Luxury sales there have increased significantly over the past several years. Brands with highly selective retail strategies are now choosing San Diego for their next stores.

Twelve Luxury Names in One Wing

Beyond the five debuts, the expanded collection includes Carolina Herrera, Gentle Monster, Loewe, Saint Laurent, Tiffany & Co., Tom Ford, and Zegna. That makes twelve houses in all, from jewelry and eyewear to tailoring.

There’s more coming, too. Newly announced REVOLVE will open its fourth U.S. store at Westfield UTC in late 2027. It’s one more sign the center has grown from a traditional shopping center into a place for fashion, dining, and experiences.

JOEY La Jolla Joins Din Tai Fung and Lady M

Two restaurants join Westfield UTC’s growing food lineup: JOEY La Jolla and Telefèric Barcelona. They give a day of shopping a real reason to stretch into the evening.

They also sit among spots San Diegans already know, like Din Tai Fung, Javier’s, and Lady M Cake Boutique. Save room for dessert.

LEED Platinum With a Resort Feel

The project is LEED Platinum certified. It uses renewable energy, natural materials, and biophilic design, with new landscaping and amenities that add to the center’s open-air, resort feel. The center, in La Jolla’s University City neighborhood, is known for its landscaped plazas and gardens.

“We’ve spent years transforming Westfield UTC into something far beyond a traditional shopping center, and this expansion represents the next chapter in that vision,” said Geoff Mason, chief operating officer at Unibail-Rodamco-Westfield. The center spans 1.4 million square feet and welcomes 14 million visitors a year.

See you there!

Start with the new boutiques, then save time for a meal at JOEY or Telefèric. It’s a lot to see, so plan on more than a quick stop.

📆 Monday – Saturday, 10 AM – 8 PM | Sunday, 11 AM – 7 PM
