What was the inspiration behind your latest collection? My Fall collection, The American Classics, takes inspiration from the great American creatives living in New York City during the 1950s and '60s, like Philip Johnson, Miles Davis, and Frank O'Hara. There's a return to more elegant, more sartorial dressing, but with relaxed silhouettes and luxurious textures. How have you updated your signature aesthetics with this latest collection? The fashions may change, but classics stand the test of time. There are quintessential pieces of a traditional wardrobe that I reintroduce with luxe fabrics and very considered design details each season, like my personal favorite chore coat made of brushed Italian cashmere. How is Todd Snyder redefining the way modern American men dress in 2023? I discovered early on that I had a knack for helping guys look their best. Ultimately, it's not about the latest trends or hard and fast rules. It's about quality, taste, and individuality—how you take the codes of menswear and remix them into your own signature style. What Todd Snyder pieces should every Bal Harbour shopper be on the lookout for? This season sees a major return to sophisticated menswear and soft tailoring, but in a way that offers texture, drape, and volume. We have beautiful tailoring in rich velvets and corduroy, sweater polos in Italian silk, and luxe outerwear styles like our Dylan jacket, a Hollywood-endorsed, made-in-Italy trucker jacket. I'm also excited to share our selection of exclusive collaborations, including my decade-long partnership with Champion sportswear, and vintage timepieces by our friends at Foundwell. What was the inspiration behind your boutique? I design all of my stores with the intent of transporting the customer into my world. For me, that means mid-century influences with a utilitarian twist and, of course, attention to quality and craftsmanship. We spent a lot of time meticulously selecting every interior detail, while honoring the rich history of design that Miami continues to influence. Slouchy tailoring, luxe cashmere, and collaborations galore—Todd Snyder is changing the way men dress. Here, we catch up with the designer about his new Bal Harbour Shops boutique.
