Los Angeles Fashion District (Textile Section)

About

Centered on streets like Santee and Maple, this district houses hundreds of textile wholesalers offering fabrics, trims, and notions. It's the main sourcing ground for the fast-fashion and apparel manufacturing industry on the US West Coast.

The Textile Section of Los Angeles Fashion District is the backbone of the West Coast apparel supply chain. Running along Santee and Maple streets, this busy wholesale market connects manufacturers directly with hundreds of textile wholesalers. Buyers come here for fabrics, trims, and notions—whether for fast-fashion production lines or custom garment runs. It's a working hub, not a polished showroom: you'll find cotton, denim, stretch knits, and specialty textiles stacked in open stalls and warehouse-style storefronts. Apparel fabric buyers, pattern makers, and production managers from Los Angeles and beyond negotiate bulk pricing and inspect materials hands-on. For anyone sourcing raw materials for the US fashion industry, this is the critical stop.
