Billy Reid, a Southern Boy at Heart! [men's fashion]

For spring/summer 2016, Billy Reid juxtaposes the shrimper of the Gulf Coast with the dandy law professor of the Deep South in a silhouette of heavy work wear, durable enough for the delta shrimp farm yet refined enough for a Southern campus.

Influenced by a rich Southern heritage, Billy Reid takes a traditional American approach to sportswear, adding a modern twist to upscale classics.

William “Billy” Reid grew up in Amite, Louisiana, where his mother ran women’s clothing boutique out of her mother’s house.

From the wetlands of Louisiana, Billy went on to Southeastern Louisiana University and, then, the Art Institute of Dallas to study fashion design and merchandising.

Now based in Alabama, Billy Reid launched his first collection in 1998. Through many toils, snarls, and snares, Billy Reid has finally come!
