Westfield Fashion Square, formerly Sherman Oaks Fashion Square, is a shopping mall in the Sherman Oaks area of Los Angeles, California. It is owned by The Westfield Group. It's anchor stores are Bloomingdale's and Macy's.

Originally anchored by Bullock's from 1962, Sherman Oaks Fashion Square joined the Sherman Oaks Chamber of Commerce in 1976, one year before The Broadway became an anchor. 18 years later, the mall suffered serious damage from the Northridge Earthquake, but was rebuilt. In 1996, both stores were closed and renamed: Bullock's turned into Macy's and The Broadway became Bloomingdale's--the result of Federated Department Stores buying out Carter Hawley Hale that same year. 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.
