SET-UP STYLE 1: P.O.W Styling



A formal British aesthetic conveyed by glen check, presented stoically with a tie.

<FABRIC>
Margaret Howell commissioned Fox Brothers to create original fabric, offering a lightweight setup that fits the modern era. The material for the jacket and trousers above is "P.O.W (Prince of Wales)," named after the Prince of Wales's favored hunting attire during his time as crown prince. It's perfect for this Autumn/Winter's deeper interpretation of British style.
