Margaret Howell S/S 2015
Margaret Howell chose British dance company Rambert's headquarters in Waterloo to present her spring collection, citing the natural link to freedom of form and movement as her impetus - along with the practical fact that demand for her show has burst the presentation out of her Wigmore Street store. Howell's evergreen mode of dressing is undergoing a renaissance. Not that it ever went away per se, but let's just say that fashion's fickle gaze has once again become attuned to the skill involved in creating consistently high quality, figure-flattering basics - from Howell's timeless trenches to round neck jersey. Without deviating from neutral hues of white, putty, cream, black, navy and grey, Howell was in true reductionist form for spring, showing us just how effortlessly good a relaxed linen blazer and pleat-front pants could look. Needing little more attention than a thin leather belt and a soft, short-sleeved knit or crisp shirt underneath, the elegance in her fuss-free, classic clothing archetypes was duly noted.
