A Step Up from Last Winter: Key Winter Items for Adults

A closer look at the styling of Margaret Howell's 2010 Autumn/Winter menswear collection reveals a natural, relaxed feel that isn't overly tied to trends. Focusing on this season's outerwear and knitwear, enjoying an elegant and chic style is truly a 'wardrobe sensibility.' The ability to complete a look with just a few pieces from your closet, offering versatility and a distinct style from last year, is precisely what defines the 'Margaret Howell way.'

This single-breasted coat with a detachable down liner is versatile enough for autumn, winter, and spring. Wear it with the down liner attached over a t-shirt or shirt for cooler days, or remove it and layer over a jacket for a more refined look. Its basic silhouette makes it a reliable choice for both formal and casual occasions.

Down-lined single-breasted coat ¥51,450 (MHL.)

This corduroy jacket, for example, is perfect for completing a look simply by layering it over a high-quality cashmere knit, perhaps with the collar slightly turned up, a favorite pen tucked into the chest pocket, and a warm scarf wrapped around. The familiar texture of the material, as if worn for years, becomes even more appealing as the weather cools. Try styling it with everything from wool trousers to denim.

Corduroy jacket ¥48,300 (MHL.)

The quintessential functional outerwear, embodying the 'light and thin' trend, is the inner down jacket. In the current season, it can be worn lightly over a t-shirt or shirt, and in mid-winter, it can be neatly layered inside other outerwear for warmth. It is equipped with comfortable features such as heat retention and breathability, proving its true value as the season deepens.

Inner down jacket ¥34,650 (MHL.)

When choosing knitwear, opt for wool cashmere for a subtly different feel. The basic crew neck highlights the neckline. This season, a slightly rumpled, relaxed look feels fresh. The solid color, embodying 'simple is best,' offers broad styling possibilities, and a crew neck will create a more current look than a V-neck this winter.
