Choose by the Warmth of Materials, Choose by Comfortable Design

The centerpiece of this coordinated look is a two-button, three-patch-pocket jacket (left photo), crafted from the soft wool material unique to Fox Brothers, exuding a relaxed atmosphere. For the current season, it's an ideal piece for a casual ensemble over your favorite shirt.

Also noteworthy is the jacket (center photo) that reimagines traditional Scottish tweed into Margaret Howell's signature shirt-blazer design. The delicate windowpane check subtly adds a casual touch, while the material's softness and warmth are palpable.




And the ivory cable-knit sweater (right photo), with its beautifully defined ribs, features a compact, modern silhouette and a color that highlights the natural hue of the original wool. It layers elegantly under a coat.

Additionally, this season's must-have item is a three-button corduroy jacket with no vents, inspired by workwear. The corduroy, sourced from a supplier specializing in traditional British brushed fabrics, has thick wales but is not stiff, offering a lustrous and refined impression.

Furthermore, the camel-hair cardigan, with its intricate knit details that elevate a sophisticated look, is complemented by matching accessories like knit gloves and beanies in the same weave.

Winter Items to Fully Experience the Margaret Howell Aesthetic

A key item this season, appearing on the runway, is a Mackintosh outerwear piece, a special collaboration reissuing Mackintosh's archival "sailing coat" style. This time, the color grey is a Margaret Howell exclusive. With a wool lining in the back, it offers a modern silhouette and comfortable fit compared to the original.

The Reefer Coat (Peacoat) (left photo) is made by a factory specializing in tailoring, with a canvassed construction similar to that used in jackets, ensuring a well-balanced shoulder line. The lining is wool flannel, and the tough yet soft texture of the Fox Brothers material is evident. This is a highly refined tailored coat that you'll treasure as you wear it.




In Margaret Howell's collection this season, where dark, tone-on-tone colors dominate, the accent knits (center photo) are particularly striking. The combination with scarves, evoking a British sensibility, is perfect for layering with outerwear like the versatileステンカラーコート for both work and leisure.

The mock-neck knit (right photo), crafted on hand-frame machines at a traditional Scottish knit factory, appears simple but has a dense weave, substantial weight, and a commanding presence.

The authentic wool duffle coat, making a return to the collection after a long absence, is made from heavy flannel for outerwear by Fox Brothers. While traditional elements like the herringbone on the collar lining and the hemp cord are retained, the minimalist design with accent stitching offers a unique, modern feel.

EXCLUSIVE ITEMS AW2014

The "Reefer Coat," available exclusively at select stores. Traditionally worn by seafarers, this coat features moleskin for the outer fabric, a material indispensable to Margaret Howell's autumn and winter collections. The flannel lining adds a rich texture.

Margaret Howell's popular "Bed Jumper" offers a cozy moment with irreplaceable warmth, perfect for relaxing in bed or on the couch. Knitwear that touches the skin should be fully enjoyed for its texture. Its light feel and relaxed fit are its key attractions.

Furthermore, the shirt-blazer style jacket (left photo), crafted from Harris Tweed, a material Margaret Howell excels with, uses rare fabric meticulously handwoven by artisans on the Outer Hebrides islands of northern Scotland. It features the coveted Harris Tweed Orb Mark, awarded only to fabric handwoven by islanders using hand-spun yarn from new wool.

ROOM WEAR AW2014

The pajama shirt (center photo) is reportedly a favorite purchase among media professionals.
Margaret herself says, "I like to use the same quality materials for our nightwear as we do for our men's and women's shirts. Since pajamas are worn directly against the skin, I believe breathable, soft natural materials are essential." Pajama trousers are also available, with subtle embroidery on both the tops and bottoms.

The homewear collection, like Margaret's "Household Goods" range, continues to be a consistent favorite. Among these, the "Bed Jumper" – knitwear designed for comfortable wear in bed (right photo) – gains new fans each season due to its exceptional material quality. This cardigan also exudes a refined warmth through its material, ribbing, and button size, inviting you to relax.
