Originally anchored by Bullock's when it opened in 1962, Sherman Oaks Fashion Square added the Broadway and I. Magnin department stores in 1975. From 1988 to 1990, the outdoor mall was enclosed and double-decked with a Mediterranean theme. In 1994, the mall suffered serious damage from the Northridge earthquake. In 1996, Bullock's was converted into Macy's. The Broadway later became Bloomingdale's—the result of Federated Department Stores buying out Carter Hawley Hale Stores, the Broadway's parent company. The Westfield Group acquired a half-interest in the shopping center in 2002 and renamed it "Westfield Shoppingtown Fashion Square", dropping the "Shoppingtown" name in June 2005.[1]

Westfield Fashion Square underwent another major renovation in 2013, creating a more cosmopolitan look and an upgraded food court.

Westfield Fashion Square has been featured in many television and film productions, including Malcolm in the Middle, The Office, Clueless, and The Ellen DeGeneres Show.
