Margaret Howell A/W 2014

Inviting editors each season into the stripped-back white noise of her Marylebone boutique, Margaret Howell needs little fanfare for the quiet, sophisticated garments that embody the ebb and flow of her classical vision. For A/W 2014 that idea remained centred on a detached masculinity, borrowing equally from the traditions of the artist and labourer with relaxed utility shapes in a palette of black, deep blues, pale denim and neutrals. It was the subtle details that counted in this fundamental outing, like the tabbed plackets on Henley shirting or geometric Fair Isle motifs creeping across a hand-knitted sweater.
