Billy Reid
|
Florence, Ala-based designer Billy Reid won both the CFDA/GQ Best New Menswear Designer in America award and the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund award in 2010; the first designer to ever win both in the same year. His collection of classic, Southern-inspired American clothing with a contemporary twist has put him on the map in the fashion industry. Interestingly enough, Houston got a flagship Billy Reid store long before New York did. The Houston store, in a remodeled bungalow, offers a collection of men's bespoke suiting, casual shirting, footwear, and accessories. The store also stocks selected pieces from Reid's women's collection.
When Billy Reid launched his eponymous label, he decided to build the brand through his own stores, instead of wholesale. Thus, he maintains a firm grip over all aspects of the retail experience for Billy Reid. Visit the Houston store to check out the gorgeous decor, inspired by Reid's own Alabama home: antique furniture and salvaged industrlal artifacts abound.
