MARGARET HOWELL | MARGARET HOWELL
The 2013 Autumn/Winter Men's Collection Begins
KEY LOOK (1) | A New Harmony of Classic and Modern
For the new season,MARGARET HOWELLshifts dramatically from the Spring/Summer theme of "Light Feeling," expressing itself through heavy, British-style tailored fabrics. Boxy jackets and shirts are paired with tapered trousers for a modern silhouette, while silk scarves and berets add an elegant touch. Incorporating elements from archival collections is also a highlight.

STYLE FOCUS 1
The first styling to embrace this season is 'tone-on-tone'.
Heavyweight materials meet a fresh, casual three-button jacket
This season, pay attention to the three-button jacket in the styling below left, which makes a return after some time, aligning with the season's theme. While using heavy, British-style materials, the overall silhouette is casual, with MHL. trousers enhancing the mix of textures and casual feel. A thin knit and a polka-dot silk scarf are layered under the jacket, subtly adding a touch of dressiness.
STYLE FOCUS 2
The accent color to watch this season is 'brick'.
Skillfully used as a pop of color in innerwear and knit patterns
The styling in the middle of the page highlights brick, a color deeper and more brown than wine red. It's a more mature version of the Margaret Howell Spring/Summer theme color, adapted for the season. The brick shirt beautifully complements the tone-on-tone grey outerwear and trousers.
ITEM FOCUS
Back again this season: John Smedley Special Order Knit
The outfit on the upper right features a striped knit from John Smedley x Margaret Howell, perfect as a standalone piece for this season or as an inner layer when it gets colder. The knit also incorporates the season's color palette.

STYLE FOCUS 3
Sophisticated layering of boxy silhouettes
An outfit symbolizing the collection's subdued palette
The styling on the lower left also showcases the season's notable tone-on-tone approach. The jacket is a two-button design made from British tailoring fabric, with a short length and boxy silhouette that allows for easy wear. The shirt is worn untucked, creating a relaxed overall atmosphere.
STYLE FOCUS 4
Clean, real, and effortlessly stylish
Styling that makes the most of a big-silhouette shirt
This season's jackets and outerwear, crafted from basic, clean tailoring fabrics in colors like black and navy, offer a fresh take. Notice the shirt in the middle-upper styling; it has a relaxed, slightly oversized silhouette. A simple navy tie paired with the shirt creates a crisp, clean look to kick off your autumn wardrobe.
