Margaret

Magazines at the moment seem to love talking about the 'androgynous trend' that awaits us this autumn and winter. Margaret Howell's collection is often cited as the perfect way to achieve this look. I have always loved Margaret Howell and the sense of Britishness and simplicity to her clothing. The slight disappointment felt when on holiday in Cornwall and having to wear quite a heavy jumper over a summer dress on the beach, is slightly appeased when it is possible to feel as if you are taking part in one of Howell's campaigns. As I am extremely far from being able to buy anything from her current collection, I tried to pull some things from my rails with Howell in mind. I'm not sure if I have succeeded but it was quite fun.
