The building on the right later became "Giorgio's of Beverly Hills", known to television viewers in the 1960s and 70s as supplying the wardrobe for numerous network series.

"The store used a signature yellow and white striped awning, which came to symbolize a Beverly Hills lifestyle."
I hated this store.
When I first moved to L.A. in the 1980s, I visited the store with some friends. As you walked through the front door a machine overhead squirted you with a copious amount of their sickly sweet perfume. After you were drenched in that sh*t, everyone in the store proceeded to give so much attitude that you couldn't wait to flee.
