Margaret Howell

Margaret Howell opened her London menswear shop in 1977, and her timeless, functional designs attracted both men and women. The namesake brand’s signature look balances structure and functionality with a soft feel, evoking nature and landscape. The modern, laid-back aesthetic, rooted in British sartorial tradition, is epitomized by the red corduroy jacket made famous by Jack Nicholson in “The Shining.” The brand’s women’s line features updates to classic pieces, including wool- and cotton-blend tweed coats, loose navy trousers, and sweaters, as well as knit accessories in subdued, earthy shades. Margaret Howell’s clothing celebrates the heritage of British tailoring, yet with a relaxed, modern style.
