Effortless Summer Linen for Spring Through Summer


A Touch of Linen: Embracing Crisp Seasonal Style


For Margaret Howell's spring and summer collections, we use linen considered the finest of its kind. It offers a unique crispness and subtle structure, while imbuing outfits with a delicate sensibility. Each year, Margaret Howell presents a wide array of linen pieces for the spring and summer seasons. This season, we've introduced linen with a melange effect and unique dyeing techniques. We aim to create looks that feel contemporary, with a focus on rich material textures.

Summer Linen for an Effortless Spring/Summer Look


Stylist Tsuyoshi Nimura, who curated this shoot, shares his thoughts on Margaret Howell's linen: "Linen offers a soft, natural feel, and can also create a luxurious atmosphere, much like Irish linen. Depending on how it's paired, it can elevate an outfit beyond what cotton can achieve." This season, the brand is offering a wide range of linen items, from apparel to accessories like scarves.
