Margaret Howell Fall/Winter 2025 / FW25 at Paris Fashion Week

Margaret Howell views design as an ongoing cycle of evaluation and renewal, continuously adjusting proportions and silhouettes whilst revisiting chosen archive styles. A collection of separates that combine to create a natural style and a personal choice for the individual. Comfortable, slouchy and casual.

The styling reflects a considered balance of structure and ease, with an emphasis on everyday wearability. Tailored silhouettes are softened with relaxed layering, the palette remains understated; grounded in deep neutrals with warm, muted accents.

Margaret Howell FW25 / Fall/Winter 2025 collection continues to reassess proportions, offering longer hemlines and oversized cuts. Classic pieces are updated—shirts, made in our London workroom, are longer and styled to show under jackets and knitwear. Fabrics are chosen for their natural character, from brushed wools to soft cotton shirtings, ensuring a tactile quality that enhances the fluidity of each look. Autumn Winter colours: Khaki Brown, Mahogany, Storm Grey, Oatmeal, Charcoal and Off White.
