Fashion locations: The Standard Hotel From Sex and The City to the pool that made the facility in West Hollywood famous for its glam
Now it’s official: the magic of Sex and The City is going to return thrilling audiences with the much-talked sequel "Just Like That" powered by HBO, whose official sneak peeks made us want to dive deep into the glamorous world of the beloved 90s queens of Manhattan. Like all girls in the summer also Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte have often decided to take a break from the Big Apple: in "Escape from New York" and "Sex and Another City", the hotel and the fantastic rooftop pool of The Standard Hotel in West Hollywood is the background of the events of the protagonists. To remotely retrace the places of the iconic location you need to close your eyes and catapult to Los Angeles. Here, between love conflicts and a conversation about Brazilian wax, the fashion victims leaft their mark: the hotel has become a place of worship for fans of the series, where the event to celebrate 20 years of the most popular TV series was held on June 8, 2018. Despite the closure of the boutique hotel on the Sunset Strip in early 2021, dreaming of a poolside September with friends is priceless.
The "Standard" mood
"It is with a heavy heart that we must announce the closure of The Standard, Hollywood. Despite 22 years of unconditional love for our hotel, our guests, our team and our community, the hotel was unable to prevent a significant increase to its lease, which makes operating the property impossible."
The Standard is not just a temple of pop culture, but a uniquely designed hotel that embodies the essence of Hollywood. The famous Instagram account @everyoutfitonsatc wrote its first post from the hotel’s poolside suite, where in 2018 he organized a reunion party with the participation of Kristin Davis, (Charlotte) and director Michael Patrick King, and an event for the launch of the book #weshouldallbemirandas. The decision to close the building is the result of the effects of the pandemic situation, which made it impossible to continue investing in the business. The company’s still active locations, all on the same wavelength as the Sunset Strip icon, are in London, Downtown L.A, East Village in New York, the Maldives and Miami.
