You ST folks have been a bad influence on me. So anyway...........
Some may know of Billy Reid. A fashion designer from Alabama, he's got an accent about like mine. He does this:
CFDA Men's Designer of the Year 2012
GQ /CFDA - Best New Designer in America Award in February 2010
Vogue Fashion Fund Award in November 2010
Instead of going to Nordstroms here in Tampa, selecting a jacket and having it tailored, I'm doing the right thing. I'm going to personally pay Billy and his associates a visit. Like go to upstate Alabama:

stereo-typing ;D, but Alabama hosts Technology and Research Parks, and I have visited on biznezz the Mercedes Manufacturing facility and Research center (Among their largest in the world) at Vance, AL :D
But this comes to mind when I think of Alabama/Georgia:

Never heard of him before your post, I'm about an hour from the Florence Alabama store and am now on the list also.
If you have a lady traveling with you, she may like to visit this designer also in Florence.

His NYC store and his clothes in Nordstrom's/Niemen Marcus/Saks 5th Ave. are more popular than that Alabama place, but thats his home so he put a nice store presence there and manufacturers/design from there too
Thank you sir for the link! I didn;t realize all that is going on in this town
