We are so incredibly thankful and humbled for this year's 20th Anniversary Shindig Revival to be featured in Vogue, ‘Billy Reid Revives Shindig At Home In Florence With The Kills, Gillian Welch, And His Family And Friends.’ by Nicole Phelps "The community energized me," Reid said in an interview about his early instincts to gather people in Florence. "We have this unbelievable legacy of music, we have the [Frank Lloyd Wright-designed] Rosenbaum House, and we have this incredible downtown that was preserved. I believe that if we could get people here they'd have a good feeling about it. It was different than what other folks were doing, and people would talk about it." Reid's annual party puts Florence on the fashion map, but the region has been a destination for the musically inclined since at least the 1960s." "Music, food, fashion - Shindig has it all." - Vogue Click the link to view the full Shindig Revival feature: https://lnkd.in/eK4_-B4h #BillyReid #Vogue #FashionIndustry #MuscleShoals #ShindigRevival

Billy Reid has a lot to celebrate this fall. Not only is the designer marking the 20th anniversary of his eponymously named label, he’s also bringing back his popular Shindig festival after a five-year hiatus. Shindig, a fashion, music, food and art event Reid hosted annually in his hometown of Florence, Ala., until it was forced to pause because of the pandemic, will also serve as a celebration of his two-decade milestone with a runway show featuring his newest collections as well as a few of his greatest hits. While he’s ready to celebrate now, Reid’s road to 20 was hardly without its pitfalls. After abandoning the idea of being a football coach, he enrolled at the Art Institute of Dallas where he studied fashion design and merchandising. After school, he cut his teeth at Reebok where he helped the brand launch the Greg Norman golf collection. Read more here : https://lnkd.in/eGx3jJgX

On today's cover: Reid Rocks On - Billy Reid is marking 20 — admittedly up and down — years in business and to celebrate, he's brought back his Shindig festival in his hometown of Florence, Ala., which will include performances by Gillian Welch and David Rawlings, seen here with Reid. It will be a celebration of the milestone but also the next phase, with more stores, more products and the relaunch of womenswear. For more on Billy Reid, see pages 6 and 7. https://lnkd.in/eMMQSwWM PHOTOGRAPH BY Caitlin McNaney for WWD.
